Meredith M. French replies: "Thank you much for the kind comment. They are always appreciated. I'm very fond of this piece as well. I'm glad you liked it!"

I love her face, and her eyes.. They're so beautiful and expressive. She looks a bit sad..

Meredith M. French replies: "I think that this character has seen a lot in her life. She is unsure of how to interpret the world around her, possibly because it is so corrupt and material. Thank you for the comment!!"

You know what, I just can't take it anymore. She's been staring at me since you gave her to me--demanding me to comment on her here. I knew from the moment you did this piece that it would remain a favorite of mine, but I've never really said what I love about it so much, I don't think. Besides the quality of the picture (which is evident), this picture just throws raw emotion out at you. I mean, it seems to me like all of the hatred--the fear, and possibly even self-loathing that she feels is pouring out of her eyes (such vessels of intensity! Gaaaah!). Though I don't know who toward--but its very alluring, and quite alarming the first time you realize it. Normally, people accomplish that emotion with hard, harsh lines--but you've drawn her so softly that she looks so innocent and beautiful, though I really wonder what she has done and seen--where that emotion stems from. That's why your title is so perfect...because I think she's decieving me. This one is getting framed and staying on my wall for eternity. Yup. Definitely. For all time. Keep it up, dear. Y'know I'm your biggest fan! (*tee hee*)

Meredith M. French replies: "gracias mi chica! I'm glad you like this piece so much. Maybe I should start another story that I never intend to finish about her. Or maybe its Kaliah with pointy ears. Hrmmmm.....tis something I should think about. But for right now, its time to do another creepy portrait. Thanks hon!!!!"

I was browsing through your work when I came across this picture. It just jumped out at me from my screen. The best thing I noticed about this drawing is her eyes. They scared me a little because I thought they were real! Outstanding work!

Meredith M. French replies: "Thanks for stopping by and leaving a comment. I couldn't do any of this without the support of my friends!"

That strikes an amazing resemblence to my friend Faithy.......lol I like this a lot...love it!

Sis (screwed up nickname I know)

Meredith M. French replies: "Thanks for the comment!"

Is it your story because it sounds amazing? If not where is it from? Pleeeease let me know. If it is your story write more MORE!!!! Thank you. Your picture is amazing. She looks so pretty but really...smoldering!

Meredith M. French replies: "This is indeed my story. If I had time to write more of it, I would. Unfortunately, I'm not a very good writer, and I'm not very speedy at it, so this is probably where this story ends. Sorry. "

*Dancing around* I love it! I love it! It's so mysterious! I love it!

I love the picture, its quite creepy because it looks JUST like a friend of mine...well just not as an elf...grate work thou!
