The poison stream continues feeding its floodwaters of cancer and despair, but the bleeding butterfly has escaped. The toxic place and its people no longer have any place in her life, she is free of them all and has flown far away to where there is only light and love. One more escape and then she will bleed no more.
I have used A3 Canson pastel paper with Schmincke and Faber Castell pastels.

That place, stream and people haunted me Maria, I am very glad that I can say goodbye properly to all of them now. Thank you for your perceptive comment.
