Ophelias Garden - Rememberance
If you are familiar with Shakespeare’s Hamlet, or the painting by John Everet Milias, you will already know Ophelia, beautiful innocent, niave Ophelia. Deep sorrow and despair following rejection by Hamlet and the death of her father drive her to the lake in which she drowns.
This modern interpretation of Ophelia is serene, sensual and strong. She retreats to the garden out of grief and despair but draws on her surroundings to become stronger, despite the loss and betrayal. She learns to free herself through acceptance and forgiveness – though she will never forget!

Ophelia’s been having lots of beautiful times in the garden ;)

Hmmm! Yes, I think her time may be up soon – but she’s still got a few things to come to terms with so maybe just one more!

The story of Hamlet, more particularly Ophelia and what her death represents to me, is one of my favorites, there is a print/painting out there( I forget who it is by and the title) that I have with amazing colors, beautifully capturing the moment and feeling of her death. This is very similar to it. Wonderful … very beautiful.
