Description
she held a beauty in her handsof rosey skin and platinum hair
so many curves and perfect lips
that curled into her careful stitch
why couldn't she be as beautiful as they
her hair of string and gnarly yarn
bound together by animal hide and dead flesh
her only curve forced by laces and bones
why couldn't she be made as wonderous as they?
with their meticulous lashes and hand-sewn eyes
she, made of scraps strewn about the room
all she could ask was why?

Ahhh I love it!
It's incredible, the girl reminds me of Violet from the Lemony Snicket series, the first illustrations he used has a very similar style to this.
Well done!

This is downright lovely; the poem reeks of something incomprehensible but lovely, as the portrait that it so perfectly describes; this is a beautiful piece. Downright beautiful.

It looks like the doll crawled out of her tummy. @_@ The thought of having something pop out of you is still pretty incredible.

Ooo wow...!
I love it, she is deformed to perfection, the room is awsome and for some strange reason I love how you did her legs 
To bad...
1. You didn't make this a print.
2. I don't have a credit card or any mean of purchacing anything off the internet.
3. I don't have any cash
4. You didn't make this a print!
other than that all's good

At first glance it looked to me like she was pulling the pink thing outta her body, so I'm getting the feeling of a kinda parallel between perfect little babies and beautiful perfect lush marilyn monroe type beauty, and her hating both and strangling it accordingly.
I love that line 'her only curve forced by laces and bone' (I'm skinny and rib-cagey and gross so I know how that feels 
it's also really well drawn in an understated kinda way, scribbly but not shitty, shows good muscles and bones in the legs and stuff, and bony thin feet, and neat expressive textures everywhere.
Also this is one of the coolest looking uses of the 1px brush I've ever seen
