Depth of Quiet

the depth of quiet

eternal

rich

sublime

so interesting to draw/paint her

as above, a meditative expression

and 

then to lay her this way:

she slept amongst the flowers

feeling the soil as her flesh

resting in the embrace of eternity

nourished in stillness sublime

She

it is not by her ears or wings that we know

it is in her spirit that tells us

she is of another realm

~

this piece has been quite hard to photograph accurately
the eye detail above is a little darker than the original 
the other two pieces are a bit lighter

layers 

and layers

of pencil and markets

were used to create her face

this is a fairly large piece 

with hair 10"x22"
