Description

This print was inspired by a book I have been reading about Illusion in art; hidden meanings and such. Wanted to try it with the shadow, clouds, etc. the message is pretty fun to interpret.

Many thanks goes out to the model, ~Vendredi13. Without her input (and obviously her image) this would not have turned out the same.

Thanks for taking a look!

Truly a beautiful and emotionally expressive piece.The use of colour is wonderful,black purple and blue..all colours symbolic of states of the heart and mind in times of sadness,feeling lost,and when we are at our lowest.The Teddy Bear as you said is a wonderful symbol of innocence and truly conveys her wishing,as we all do from time to time,for those days when life was brighter happier and the world was full of all things imaginable. The face in the clouds,and the entity in the blue shadow cast by her with the flailing hair,either representing good or evil..God or Demon..her search through religion as a possible way to help find a way through and out of her despairing state..or just the struggle to find hope within herself to grasp and gain strength to pull herself through to brighter times and not let herself to succumb to the darkness that she feels is taking her piece by piece each day.Truly a beautiful and touching piece.:deviation:
