Marina, fabulous job. One could write a short story based on this painting.

Marina,

I am a big fan of your work and love how you manipulate the settings and poses to provide us with more than just the image of a beautiful child. Lovely, as usual!

Marina, I loved the drawing, and now am truly in love with this painting. Everyone has already mentioned the story aspect of this, and my immediate reaction was of the story behind it. Then it hit that it is also beautifully painted.

Jean

What a great idea! As you said, Marina, art that raises questions aesthetically, emotionally and intellectually holds an irresistible attraction for the viewer. It definitely hints at a story.

But on the other hand, maybe the unknown and the questions are more compelling than the answers. We can all look at it and invent our own stories.

Thanks Kenneth !
Someone knows a writer?

Richard,
I'm flattered that you spent so much time analyzing the drawing and the painting. The drawing was first created as a final piece. I always had in mind that one day I should try to make a painting from one of my charcoal-cont

Marina, an excellent painting. Don't be surprised if a publisher of children's books contacts you. I am so so happy for you as your dream is becoming a reality. The road of excellence has many rewards but lets not forget the master artist for giving us the gift of sight.

I wish you smooth sailings even when the sea is rough.

SB, great painting ! I didn't know it.
I think the story is quite different from mine. ( Even the girl looks in cage in her dress...)

Mischa ,
thanks for your philosophical comment !
