Description

Yes, it's a Lady :3

I made this drawing today on my drawing classes. I have recently decided to not make still-lives, it makes my eyes ache when I see any of them, and to concentrate on drawing whatever appears in my weird mind. This time this Lady shared those few hours with me.

I might have a little story/moral/idea behind this picture but how do you think - what is it about?

Oh this is beautiful! It has such a nice hue for the rest of the image, and the delicate lines really do something for it.

I honestly love the texture of the piece as a whole, and think the simplicity of the mask is eerie, but alluring.

The intricate swirling designs on the cloak add something to it, on top of the floral appearance(It reminds me of petals!)

I enjoy the surrealism of it, and overall think it's very nice. The only reason you got a 4 for impact instead of higher is because the piece has a very mellow and sort of desaturated colour. So while it goes nicely, it doesn't really catch the eye. Though what it lacks in attention-grabbing, it certainly makes up for in theme and execution.
