Artist's Comments

"I will color you beautiful", he came to tell me.


The butterfly is handmade by my mother.


The blackness of my eye is not manipped at all. Skin a bit whitened, color and contrasts a bit enhanced. Makeup from H& M. :p Taken with the oh so tiny Canon Ixus i (the camera I won last summer, I've never really liked it until now).

whoa , this is aboslutely beautiful
I love that little cute buterfly, aww... The color of it's "wings" and the texture add an interest to the theme. Not that the eye is not interesting. It's awesome for sure. and yeah, the blackness of your eye does look a little unusual, it's like there is no eyeball :giggle:

I love it. :heart:

Really, really lovely. The color is amazing, that vivid turquoise contrasting with the ivory of the skin and the salmon of the eyeshadow. What a delicate eyebrow! I love it! I also like that the wire of the butterfly antennae intersect with the eyelashes. It give the photo a sense of danger and immediacy. I like the tiny touch of the lense flare on the central part of the butterfly.

Thanks for sharing this. I really like it.

Incredible! I've never seen anything like it. The colors are extraordinary.
I love the little quote, too. It really gives it a lovely touch.
Just a wonderful portrait. A fav, of course.

I think it could definately do without the photoshopped lens flare in the center, but otherwise its beautiful.

Well this is beautiful. Really. I agree with *SparinthPhotography though, I think it would be even nicer without the lens flare.
