A World of Silenceby *SomnolentImages

Digital Art / Photomanipulation / People

" Across the gallery, my Wild Girl stares at me from her ebony frame. Although her expression is seared into my mind, although my own hand made every brushstroke that defines her, I cannot look on her without feeling a fresh twist of pain. Her hair, of that rich, extraordinary shade I used to amuse myself by defining - the colour of newly opened chestnuts in their cases, of beech leaves against snow, of polished pennies, of a kestrel's wing - tumbles over her shoulders. Her eyes, not quite green, not quite blue, hold mine in a blend of exultation and pleading. This is my reason for painting her: to hold this moment in suspension, to keep for ever the possibilities it holds.
In the next instant it will be too late. Her plea will remain unanswered, and I will have failed.

My heart clenches."

I'm trying to do more digital painting, as it holds new challenges for me. Please keep in mind I am only a beginner at digital painting!! All stock mine or from sxc.hu
