I had to look at this a second time to work out what was in the picture. I’m not sure the girl should merge into the darkness. It’s still a very interesting picture and I do like it.

:-) Evgenia P. Petkova aka Foxy Jenny replies: "oh, well, it`s not even a girl... it`s just some kind of a humanoid-like creature. 2 and it`s merging into darkness to create some confusion, also because it`s not part of the world it`s seen into... it`s just a mare, an illusion of something familiar but not trully it. 2 and i`m glad you like it. 1"

A bit like M.C. Esscher, those buildings. Really interesting picture with an intriguing title. Lovely style as well.

Oh very MC Escher! Yeah I had to look twice before I saw her too. Could she be treading dreams in and out of the buildings?
And now could you do a Lego version? LOL

:-) Evgenia P. Petkova aka Foxy Jenny replies: "rofl, hahah, a lego version would trully be interesting to see... but no, i can`t do it, unfortunately. 2 no skill for that.

she`s not a she, she`s an it. and to be honest, i`ve no idea what it`s doing, besides sitting there and not caring about the laws of physics. ;P 2"

Oh I would love to hear your thoughts! Especially since when I see this I think she is trying to lure something her way. Very interesting.

:-) Evgenia P. Petkova aka Foxy Jenny replies: "2 oh, well. the more time i spend on a picture, the more story there is behind the picture.

it`s not a she, it`s an it. 2 a being out of physical reality. it`s more of a mind picture than a reality-describing one. the creature is sitting on a city building, which is floating in a void of nothingness, trully useless, awfully confusing, stripped off of all ornaments, left only the bare holding structure, made to withstand gravity, useless at a place where there is none... and toned in the colours of apathy.
the creature itself is so black, it`s invisible within the blackness, except for the face and hand, which are actually a mask and gloves. it`s a piece of darkness that`s taken shape, a shadow that`s gained matter. (Anderson`s got an interesting fairy tale about one such shadow, by the way).
the red ribbon is a wish - of dynamics and movement, of action, of their return into a world of standstill. 2

... this got too long... sorry. in short, red is a symbol of life and action, the ribbon itself is flexible opposed to the hard, grey concrete. and the creature`s just a mind. something that thinks but has no physical expression.

i hope i didn`t bore you..."

I like the depth you are trying to break into with drilling into our minds.
