Artist's Comments
Completed: April 2003
Medium: Oil on canvas And you don't seem to understand A shame you seemed an honest man And all the fears you hold so dear Will turn to whisper in your ear And you know what they say might hurt you And you know that it means so much And you don't even feel a thing I am falling, I am fading, I am drowning, Help me to breathe I am hurting, I have lost it all I am losing Help me to breathe... Ophelia is one of my favorite literary characters, and I utilized this surrealistic approach to capture some of her madness that classic (and better) artists didn't tend to touch upon in their portrayal of her... Flowers and her dress.. Drowning. The upside-down text describing words associated with the chaotic emotions of femininity, such as "Hysteria".. Falling up from the orchestrated symphony of space into the tumultuous sea.. |

 reports, 1d 7h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |

I love the colors, the blue is somehow deep..
And I like the feeling that I'm having when I look at this.. Harmony must be the word I'm looking for...
Good work!
