Now... I *know* some people will find this picture strange, creepy, ... others have done so before. :)

I got the idea when I had read (the very good book!!!) *Brother Grimm* by Craig Russell. And I highly recommend it.

The idea behind the picture is an - as you can see - grown up *little* Red Riding Hood (obviously she lost the hood somewhere on the way...) and she seems to having been rather influenced by her past experience out in the woods. And she's decided to deal with it. Now who exactly she took revenge on - a friend asked me that, but I want to leave that to your own imagination.

I've always found this fairytale on the creepy side. First of all I didn't like a wolf being the bad one as I absolutely love wolves, but what I found even worse was that this mother sent her little girl out into the here obviously dangerous woods, knowing she'd be in danger there. So I guess I've dealt with that fairy tale myself now, too. :)

 

One more thing: I know the perspective isn't *real* - it's supposed to be like this.

Man.. If I ran into her in the dark woods I would be ruuunnniingg. She looks VERY creepy and looks like she could murder anyone that got in the way. *Runs away screaming*

Really nice! I love her expression and the kind of coy way she's standing. ^_^
