Description
One of my favourite Shakespearian characters, I think a lot of people are drawn to Ophelia! This is my third Ophelia I have painted, and I'm sure I will paint her again. This time it is more of a portrait piece, showing Ophelia still very much alive, eyes sparkling with despair and a hint of madness. You can see the waterlilies in the background and in her hair you can see many of the flowers mentioned in the play. One of my personal favourites. This one debuted at the Celebration Art Stroll in February of 2011 where it was immediately sold, but luckily I took scans so I have prints to offer! My own original acrylic painting.

I love Ophelia <3 And I loved her even more after reading the book "Ophelia" (ophelias side of the story) it really made me feel bad for her... she went through a lot

Very beautiful job, Jasmine. This has a very classic feel, although it is definitely your style! It's a wonderful representation of Ophelia. I think William Shakespeare would be proud to see this. ^_^ Great job, as always!

This looks great - I'm loving the bit of glassiness you put in her eyes.
