Description Angst-rich and open to interpretation.

-----

Finally broke away from the usual background/lights setup. Still the same old model, though.
Cropped, toned, layered, dodged & burned in Photoshop. Comments & suggestions for improvement would be Very Much AppreciatedTM.

Your eye looks incredible... Burn tool?

If I had to interpret this, i'd go with something along the lines of: The strings represent all things that bind us and hold us back from exposing our true selves (the complete face).

very good to hear an interpretation. not many bother. fitting idea, too.

no burn around the eye...only dodge on the whites.

Dream-like, clever, rich. It's like looking in a mirror (sort of). There's nothing angsty here.

Beautiful piece. Fantastic range of tones - I love the way the eye pops out *sooo* very much. The white is so clear and bright, and the clarity is fantastic. Great idea, interesting concept.

Fantastic piece.
To be honest, when I first saw it i thought of Jesus with the crown of thorns. Something about it struck me that way.
You look terrifed, but not suprised, slightly expectant as if you're waiting for something to happen. The border suits it perfectly, and it has a nice contrast.

I like, a lot.

This reminds me of my soul...

No I'm sorry I just can't do angst, no matter how hard I try. Cool pic' though, if a little scary in the nightmare making area.

The phrase "poke her in the eye, that'll calm her down" has never had so much meaning lol

What did I tell you about letting Riaz near you with chicken wire? If you searched for all of the "Untitled", or the subs that have "." in the comments section, I wonder what kind of % of DA subs you'd have? I'm thinking 80-90........





Although I'm quite disturbed as to the composition, and how you found out that this looked good, but the finished effect is very emotive......

O my . . this is very intense . . . everything works well -- the foreground, the eye placements,
dyanmics and the string of some kind adds a touch of more feeling. very well done -- Ive seen
your whole gallery and this may be my fav...GReAtWOrk. +FAV

i'll always stick with that strenght with the facial expression. definitively, you are able to communicate something with your eyes and it's always new and fresh. the gray tones are very well handled and the contrast, the density give a great touch to the composition. amazing. again.

ooo, beautiful... in some way that i couldn't really describe. i think it's maybe the look on the model's face, or the fact that it's black and white, or... the concept. well, whatever it is, it kicks ass.
