Artist's Comments

As you can probably guess, this work draws from both Lewis Carroll and Expressionism. Also, there is some Jungian thing going on with the shadow.

I dedicate this work to `saintartaud, because she's awesome. She has been very influential on my cultural development, pointing me to artists, films, books, comics, musicians and other things I wouldn't know about if she hadn't recommended them. This work is a "thank you" card of sorts for her. For you, AR. :heart:

Good work disi. Sometimes it scares me how much you and *saintartaud are alike.

As usual, your works have an impending doom and an overall sense of well-thought creation. I think it's a classic photo, like you said, that meets the Disi - someone who can manipulate an image to a point of complete satisfaction. I love her stance - like she is completely unaware, and in her own state of calm. Great image my friend. Nice to see you still kickin' it hard.

Excellent work. The pose fits perfect for the idea. The effect of crumpled up paper works good with this also.

And yes, you and :saintartaud: have influenced alot of us. If it wasn't for you both, I wouldn't know Tom Waits or Nick Cave.

I love this. It has a quite different meaning for me, than what is intended I'd guess...but I love it anyway.

Ach! Now I'm embarassed! :blush: Thank you...
This is very lovely. I get the whole shadow thing--here it's absolutely inescapable. The shadow is nicely blended, but I especially like the way the wall has that rough texture, reminiscent of Saudek's wall, but a different thing. Her gesture is so lovely and tormented. It's just a very nice, felt piece.

The shadow on the wall is great, how did you do it? I also like how she is a ballerina, adds a lot of grace to her.
