SciFi and Fantasy Art Pangaea - Take Me by S. ´Silvestris´ Strand

Here we have another picture of Crow, the bitchy yet tragic little courtesan-boy from Machra-la... All he really wants is for someone to want him, to love him, but since he's so very afraid to be rejected, his own defenses make sure to keep people away. A very messed-up kid. Don't you just want to take him home with you..?
This image of the scarred and fallen, yet defiant and proud little courtesan was inspired by the poem that's also translated and added to the image. ( Poem written by Swedish artist and author Jonas Gardell. )

Now let's see how many commentators neglect to read this text and mistake Crow for a girl...

22 Nov 2007	Nicole Laura Antonia Rodovsky	Loading... Hahahaha, I've taken another look at Crow and right now he TOTALLY reminds me of Chris Crocker.
16 Apr 2008	Calix	Loading... the eyes are llike cat eyes...kool! Love it!
7 May 2008	Morgan Muggs Munoz	Loading... I love the eyes!
13 Jun 2008	Fire horse	Loading... ok, i read the liitle discription up above, but if you didn’t want people to think hes a girl, why’d you put makeup on HER! That is a girl. You can say whatever you want, but that pic is of a girl Crow
29 Jun 2008	Amanda Seely	Loading... Positively stunning, as always , love the eyes and the lighting in this pic . . .well, love the entire thing but those two things stick out hehehe . . .excellent work!
30 Jul 2008	Tahira	Loading... Shhh His gorgeous golden eyes are telling me something...
30 Oct 2008	Bella	Loading... I’ll have to admit, I ... ehm... had once... ehm, long time ago... Okay well, for about a minut ago.. I thought it was... okay, well... a girl. Sorry for that... But it’s a wonderful picture, really love it. The hiding moon. I love the eyes, and the entire, you know, everything =S... Can’t explain it better.
27 Dec 2008	Sarah Fragore Roper	Loading... if its a he... why doed ’he’ look like a girl? maybe if you took away the makeup and gave him a little facial hair then it would look like a guy. and he’s got a females shoulders and neck, there is a difference. i don’t know what it is thats different between them i just do. maybe the male neck and shoulders are stronger on more muscly but this is a girl. sorry
2 Mar 2009	Paula Friederike Dieck	Loading... I don’t think he looks like a girl... I think what people need to understand is what exactly a courtisan is and that, yes, there are male ones and they do wear make-up. I admit the make-up made me think of a girl as well but if I imagine him without, he looks quite male Great pic, anyway.
