Description
Metamorphoses of the Moon
...Either way we choose, the angry witch
will punish us for saying which is which;
in fatal equilibrium
we poise on perilous poles that freeze us in
a cross of contradiction, racked between
the fact of doubt, the faith of dream.
- S. Plath
This is a work of 8.5 hours of painting in Photoshop 7. Only the girl and her perch were done in Poser. The wings are all individual painted feathers they alone took me 3.5 hours.
This ones personal.
Never keep a winged creature from flying.
