    I think my favorite aspect is the poised hands…they remind me of sneaking mice in The Nutcracker ballet, really establishing the mystery in your picture. and…thanks a bunch for your nice comment on my illo this week!

    I love this. The detail in the mask and on the back of her shirt is wonderfully done.

    I can’t quite make out the little orange ball next to her hands, but my eye is strangely drawn to it every time I look at this. Beautiful and mesmerizing!
