____________________________________________________

I made this with hundreds of random hand-written words (no automatic fonts used!!).
That was a time consuming project. I might be working on similar images shortly.

My mother is a dance teacher. So this piece is dedicated to her!

See some details HERE

Angel (Sonnet 14)

A poem by Peter S. Quinn

With a mind and a face of an angel,
She toned each my feelings with affection;
Letting on me, fragile kind of marvel,
And showing me the straightest direction.
To the castles in the mystified air,
Where the desiring rainbow crosses through;
And we sometimes do fly away to there,
When we feel down, and are exposed and blue.
All the ways of grace she showed then to me,
With viewpoint to courage and to be kind;
How easy it is then to become free,
If all worries are left forgotten behind.
This angel is sweet creature so divine,
Everything else a shadow, to her shine.

The work is wonderful and amazing. I love the idea of incorporating writing to drawing. You did it very well. The set of words used resulted in a perfect context for the final image, and also contributes to the aesthetics of the work. Congratulations!

I love this, both from a dancer perspective and an artist's. Its interesting how you left the bottom corner unfinished. The detail in how small the letters gets is awesome. Just wonder, did you use a reference?

This is beautiful! I love the whole idea of it.

I wish I was still a premium member so I could give it a proper critique.

One thing I will comment on, though, is the leg that's in the air. It looks a little too short, and stick-like. But other than that, it's amazing.
