...she is exquisite. Thank you for posting the details, each one really grabs me more than the previous. The modeling in the face is so delicate, and yet it really vibrates with life and light.

I wasn't so sure about the simplified green haze she emerges out of, but coincidentally I'm reading a great book by Gregory Maguire, "Wicked, the Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West" (for any readers out there, ) where the protagonist is, of course, green. Anyway, perhaps because of the mystical book, I don't object to the other-worldly green mist as I might otherwise.

If it has been 10 years since you've picked up a pencil, it has obviously been a 10 years filled with LOOKING and SEEING. I am in awe of this work. Please post more.
