Description
If I ran away,
I'd never have the strength to go very far,
how would you hear the beating of my heart?
Will it grow cold, the secret that I hide,
will I grow old,
how will you hear,
when will I learn,
how will I know?
I know where beauty lives,
I've seen it once I know the warmth she gives,
the light I could never see
it shines inside of me.
A man can tell a thousand lies,
I've learned my lesson well,
hope I live to tell
(words from "Live to Tell" by Madonna)

Syyd this is sad, beautiful, haunting, wonderful and brilliant. The pain is so pronounced in her eyes it sents chills down my spine. Your work is always so moving! Brilliant work!
One of Your most beautiful works, I see You have put so much passion in it. This image is flodded with emotions and untold words...BRAVO!
Spooky and chilin
Oh.......that stunned ache like a fire in her throat, choking her......thoughts chasing each other too fast to be caught, whirling away........
Fantastic, Syyd. ;]
WoW Syyd!!, you had achieved a great effect in this work!!, it seems a figured one in copper, it is an incredible design!!!.
Tears!
oh my what emotion all of your pieces seem to have...great work! :)
Beautiful! Stunning! I feel those eyes, I feel in them ache and emotion.
very impressive, somehow disturbing yet beautiful. wild colours, wild vision... another amazing image from an amazing lady.
Powerful Syyd. Excellent work, full of emotion.
It's her eyes that capture and hold me, the conflict and duality I feel from them, expressed through colour, texture and pose. The bit of texture over her right eye reminds me vaguely of rust/gritty sediment, as if she's seeing, opening her eyes after much time to truth. The colours speak directly to the light and shine and beauty within us all. Very moving piece.
Plain gorgeous!! It grabs me and just pulls me towards the screen somehow. It's captivating, emotional......simply one hell of a piece of art! Love & hugs, Johnnie...
Magnificent. =) I always feel such emotion looking at your artwork. =)
Very powerful.. You can feel the pain... Yet it has its own beauty..
I love seeing her merged with the sunset like that.
Wow you dhould do this more often! These eyes will haunt me for a while! Very very Powerful!
sad looking image..
the pain and sorrow in those eyes are overwhelming and has a deep effect on me. I have no other words other than beautiful work...
excellent work Syyd!
Pure and simple, your work shreds the soul, Syyd. Always eliciting a visceral, and therefore definition-defying reaction from the viewer.
Beautifully sad. She looks like she is afraid of being blown away by her fears. Fantastic Syyd. And great to see you back in this style for a while. Love you...C...XXX
Syyd, I truly think this is beautiful...you show such emotion in the work and the technique you used made this such a painterly piece...it just radiates. Wonderful! hugs and kisses
Such emotion here & you created a beautiful piece of art out of it. Excellent work Syyd.
This is stunning and the use of live to tell compliments it so well. Such a beautiful song and an even more beautful work of art.
Impressive work and can tall a lot a lot...
I do like this kind of "painting experiments" - your brush's really got the colors of autumn, that's almost as worm as fire - congrats !
Great work! Art is always supposed to make you feel emotion and you definately have that come across strong.
beautiful image Syyd, filled with emotion... well done!
He laid down besides her, noticing the ashes that had settled on her great wings, in one gentle moment he blew a breeze across her form and the dust of ages vaporized and vainished, a glimmering flash of light pierced the void as her golden wings were revealed once again....you could hear the angles singing and the bells of freedom chiming in the distance............
