Description
"You crawl into bed, it's three a.m.you smell of wine and cigarettes.
Like a butterfly under a glass
you're beautiful,
but you're not going anywhere..."
And now I'm asking myself
if I can free you by opening my hand
by dropping the glas and your heart to shatter...

Hiya...
this is a picture I did for LittleRedX and her beautiful backlace. [link]
The first part of the poem is hers
and the second part is my addition to it. I hope she likes it. So, first part her, second my humble interpretation of it
Well the picture...not my best piece and I'll do another butterfly piece soon, because somethin' is bothering me with this one. Dunno what though. Maybe you can point it out to me!
And this is already a little thank you for my 1000 Pageviews! Yay. But I'll do an extra one for that! Just to let you know that I'm really thankful!!!!! THANK YOU!!!

You have no idea how much this means to Laura, I spoke to her now, and this really touched her...
Congratulations on the interpertation of the poem, spot on if you ask me.
I think the back-piece does not quite flow along the back (feels a bit stiff), and stands out a tad to much compared to the rest (as mentioned, before). Apart from that, you made something beautiful from something beautiful, and you made somebody's day.
I salute you.

Hi and thank you for your comment!
I'm really glad and relieved that she likes it. puhh...and thx for the, I'll put it like that, praise...*g*
Yeah, the necklace...it's kinda stiff, but as I saw it it's made of leather and that doesn't fall like a pearl necklace. But I'll try something so it doesn't seem so...artificial...out of place...like it doesn't belong. But like this it stands out and everyone sees it! *g*...trying to make excuses here...
So, uhm thank you again.

lol, no need for excuses 
But I still say, good work!

The scene is so haunting and I really, really, really love the butterfly trapped inside the glass...
You've actually managed to make me cry. As pretentious as that sounds - seriously chick - this is such a personal piece and the fact you get it means so much.

Oh my gosh, I'm sooo relieved you like it! I was so insecure about it! You sure heard me breath out in relief from where you are. And I told you that your butterfly and your poem inspired me so much it got to me that this is the least I could do! I loved doing this!

I think the problem with the backlace is that it looks too real. Whereas the rest of the piece has a more cartoony feel, I thought it was superimposed from a photo at first.
I love the facial expressions though.

the colors look weired though...darn...but the necklace is supposed to be more prominent! But thanks for pointing it out to me. I'll might change that. Though this is not my main problem with it. It's the shadows somehow. Dunno.
But thank you for your comment, sweets.

The shadow on the necklace looks like it's coming from nearly straight at it, as opposed to directly from the side. Maybe you need to make them longer?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yeah, maybe you're right. I have to correct some other things so I might as well as change the shadow! *g* But thanx for your thoughtfulness...is that a word?
THX!
