What a clever mixed media picture this is. It certainly looks like a dark lady! It appears to be right out of a nightmare. You have a wicked look in her eyes.

Very original... Very nice composition, color, and contrast. I am a accomplished wedding photographer, and artist. I am not perfect, nor do I judge your work on perfection. Thank you for sharing today.

    Thank you for your kind review. Nobody is perfect :-). How boring it would be to live surrounded by perfection.

Imagination, and originality and interruptation drives this creation. The colors are bold, and seem to play with your senses. The eyes are a haunting for sure.

Thanks for sharing this.

    Thank you very much for your review, the kind wishes and the compliment on the eyes. You made my day, I spend a lot of work and time on these eyes.
Comment from BreathtakingExposure


Well i know the song and can relate the image to it. the eyes lack a sharpenss though which may be down to the image or resolution but as these are the central point of focus they need to be sharper. Love the hand holding the cards in the corner

    Thank you for your review and your input. I appreciate both very much. Sorry but I disagree about the eyes. I have the eyes overlaid with the smoke in purpose. My last layer was [made up] smoke 85% transparent. These eyes are looking to real smoke, and the smoke of emotion at the narrator and the viewer. They aren't real anyway. Only the pupils and the iris are from a photo. The rest is digitally painted. They are supposed to be symbolic as everything else. I never had a nightmare but I had similar fever hallucinations were reality were still there but much distorted.

    There is no problem with disagreement - we all have opinions and we tkae what people say or not - you know what you are trying to achieve so thats cool :-)
