Wowser! you've many comments on this piece, and rightly so. Ophelia has been overdone so many times over the years, particularly by art students and the like. There's something fresh about this though. Maybe it's the brighter colours (wheras most depictions have been in darker tones). But it still holds a sense of her story. Great work. xx

I was afraid of the cliche isssue, but to me 'Ophelia' carries many symbols, she's not just a character in a story...

Appearently, Ophelia is not just a random character. Did I miss something?

Ophelia is a character from Hamlet by William Shakespeare. ^.^

You are eye-catchingly talented.

In a way your piece is some sort of 'Pop-art meets Shakespeare'.
Nice work.

This is really quite good. I always thought Ophelia deserved so much more. She had a beautiful heart that was just destroyed. Oh, I suppose that's Shakespearian tragedy for you. Anyway, it's fantastic!

Wow, it's really catching...
It reminds me Frida Kahlo's pics of her broken body in the new environment...

Simply magnificent. <3 I think this is appealing to all the high school students that just covered Hamlet in their classes (including meeee..)
This is great work. *thumbs up!*
