Description A doll stands in the snow and wonders what the cold feels like.

She's never hungry, never thirsty, never ill, always pristine, always beautiful... but would give all these up to feel the cold.. to feel human.

Just a conceptual sketch I finished off, I started it in the airport in Ireland; coming home from Eirtakon I was dropped off at the airport at 4:30am, it was dark, freezing and raining heavily, worst part was I was taken to the wrong terminal so had to drag my bags round to the other entrance. I though 'what a rubbish way to end a great weekend' then I looked around. In the darkness all the lights of the airport were bright, the heavy rain made them sparkle, and the whole world was dazzlingly reflected in the river which was once the road. It was beautiful. I took a deep breath of fresh, cold air and couldn't help but smile.
Often the things we think are negative can be viewed in a different light if you are prepared to look... cold, sad, hurt might feel bad at the time, but they turn to warm, happy and healed. The doll would do anything to feel them all. Embrace the dark as well as the light.

Peace, love and humanity,
~Blue x

Great concept and really well drawn! I love how you've subtly used the light to pick out her shape amongst the darkness, and the cold colours give it a sense of melancholy.

Destiny, I really wish I could be more original with my comments, but honestly, your work just never ceases to amaze me. I wish I had more money so I could just buy all your work. You do currently take up a fair part of my walls already though haha ^-^'

One thing that always inspires me about your work is the way you use colour and light. Almost all your work features different coloured glows, as well as them reflecting on other things, and it just dazzles me. It's something I've never been able to do, and I admire you all the more for how consistently well you manage it.

I can't wait to see you at which ever con we cross paths at again, cos I should warn you now, you are going to get SUCH a big hug haha. Plus I imagine most of my money is going to go on just buying all your pretty pretty prints

Lots of love, as ever
Holly

I think you mean 'never thirsty', not 'never thirty', as you've writted. Beautiful concept, though, and the description - setting, I suppose - is very sweet. Thank you for sharing.
