'My heart drenched with tears,
I did not wish to hear
All the harmfull words
You used to say to me.

Never did I dare to believe
I couldn't hear
all the bad things
nor the good things
They used to say.

Who can save me
I beg you
Sing me the hymn of love
the anthem of life.

Let me hear you again...'

---------------------------------

You can consider it as a self portrait. Or well... sort of (;
I'm not blond, for instance...

Melody is my most beloved character. Maybe because she reflects to who I am, or who I used to be...

I didn't use a single reference image, except for a picture of myself, so I could give her some features of mine.
It doesn't look completely like me, just parts of it.
Exactly what I had in mind.

---------------------------------

Want to know a bit about her story?

Melody, an ancient creature and distant relative of Nora , has the gift to heal people with her sacred voice.

However, her heart got broken by someone she held dear, to whom she had given her heart to.
It's her curse to live without sound, as well as her voice, until the one with a pure voice will sing her ancient melody.
The only melody that can give her hearing back.

The hymn of love that is long forgotten... Is there still anyone who remembers this song?

---------------------------------

There are several symbols hidden in this portrait, such as:
The Shells on her necklace: the defensive mechanism, she who won't be harmed by harmfull wishes.

The 5 glowing dots and 5 beads: her 5 senses.

The reflection in her eye: the cause of her curse, a broken heart.

Dryed tears: she's still grieving for the loss of her love: the sound she cannot hear

You probably can find more. It's up to you to discover them...!

---------------------------------

I want to dedicate this to my light in the days of darkness,
