Tag As FavoriteComment		No matter who we are we have all struggled with the balance between order and chaos.

Trade with Darien Gerke, who is much better at watercolours than I am. The masking fluid was being unforgiving to me.

That is really, truly deeply fascinating. It reminds me of an analogy I once read for the second law of thermodynamics (which is all about chaos vs order), about shaking a box of jigsaw puzzle pieces.
-- "Will the pieces come together to form the picture, whole and perfect? Nope. It all ends up as a mess (chaos)."

I love this. The simple, delicate colors and the complex swirls of her hair, the puzzle pieces- it's all so beautiful. Definitely one of my favourites of your work!

OH! This is one of those pictures that just makes me scream out silently in my brain because its so cool! Did those puzzel peices take forever or what? It would make an awsome poster, i can see it on every semi-goth infulensed 16-year-old's wall in america!

Wow.. Love the puzzles... Really makes you wonder. And btw.. I think the watercolors work quite well for you 2

Wow! Amazing! You are a master of color, so it might be odd for me to say, that THIS has got to be one of my favorite of yours. *hands you a People's Choice Award* ^_^

Oooo... Weirdness. I like the incompleted-puzzle look to the pic, and the way that the order half is trying to cover up the chaos half. And the struggle is causing everything to fall apart... ::Nod:: Is that what you were going for? That's what i got from the piccy...

Or maybe i just think too much. 0_o

It looks like she is escaping from her life, complicated and unforgiving...To try a new one....

That's an intriguing concept. Your watercoloured works always look very elegant, but in this particular case the idea behind the picture adds a lot to the impact!
