“say hello to everything you’ve left behind. it’s even more a part of your life now that you can’t touch it.”
i was listening to the song (a perfect circle, “the nurse who loved me”) on the way to work and it made me think of this image, and i was kinda stoned so i cried, a little, because don’t we all know what it’s like?

Awesome work! :D

Fine Art Composites

What a powerful and sad image. Absolutely love it and the words with it.

What poetry and the passion and emotion that it brings,with this picture it brings such beauty together.

Awesome work! Please consider submitting this to Moody, Dark and Evocative

Choose the pieces you’d like to try to submit, sweetie. If we feel it works, we accept it. If not, we quietly and nonchalantly deny it and life moves on. Nothing public and no worries. This way you don’t have to stress and neither do we. :)

WOW Incredible work!!

_{I can not find the words..} So pretty!

love this!

this is awsome magic wonderful..

Great portfolio !!

The artwork, the poem…both are beautiful.

i love this. it’s such an emotionally-drawing piece. i love how you are able to make your viewer feel just by a single glance at your paintings. just a single image tells the secrets of the soul and this picture reminded me of bitter sweet memmories regarding lost loves that everybody deals with. I like how when the man walks away it seems to get darker where he’s headed.

wow-stunning artwork and words-Margot

This image is gorgeous! It really reminds me of the Tess of the d’Urbervilles cover image, though she didn’t actually have red hair in the book, lol! :)
