Description

It's kind of a message, I guess. Maybe it's society's cry for help. I'm tired. I have no clue. That's a woman's reflection in the eye-- the product of society. Overblown plastic surgery, anorexia... all that sort of stuff. Is this what we are? Is this beauty?

Beauty's in the eye of the beholder, after all.

Edit: As requested, my medium...s. Colors were soft pastels, black was charcoal, white was white prismacolor colored pencil. ^_^

I love the style of this piece, the message is brilliant, and you have a lot of talent.


[But, I feel I have to point out something (hey, feel free to ignore me:) )-anorexia isn't just people wanting to be incredibly thin, it's not driven by vanity. It's to do with all sort of different problems that people have. I shan't go on, because I probably never shut up...*rolls eyes*]
