I’ve been working on this for a long time, still needs to be touched up but I’m going to take a break and work on something else.
Clara is smart, intelligent, hardworking, honest, and all the positive traits that one could have; but she is miserable somehow because there is this devil that makes all these nothing… They claim she is free and yet she feels controlled. If Clara is a place… it is a place where something evil – power, money, status quo rules the land.
Great subject exposition. I really love the details you put in your subject and the colors.
I do not tell you often enough; I love your work.
I really like this. As usual; excellent job!
This is beautiful. The colors and eyes are great!
this is incredible .. and with such beautiful execution
Really superb!
Such a great painting. The colours are very strong and beautiful.
This is so compelling in its colors and the helpless look of Clara in the grip of the blue devil. Your commentary makes it even more powerful.
