Description This isn't about death or the soul leaving the body. Maybe it will be about that for you but it wasn't for me.

This was an exorcism. It failed [mostly]. Here there be dragons....

Reminds me of the Mike & the Mechanics song "the Ghost of Sex and You".

I really like the flow and contrasting balance of the piece. Very gracefully done.

Amazing manipulation, i really do love that one. It's hard to NOT think about "death or the soul leaving the body", but as you stated it wasn't ment this way from you. An "exorcism"? I'm trying to guess what you wanted to get rid of, or did you want to leave something behind you? Anyway, great work!

*blink*

dayum...

an exorcism... interesting... usually images of that involve ugly demons... but to have the spirit that is exorcized be a thing of beauty...

*smiles*

wonderful idea...

Beautiful work... there is such a huge contrast between the smooth and beautiful skin of the body, and the burnt, blistered wound where something is being "exorcised". I like it a lot. Oh and the negative background is sweet too.
