Artist's Comments

First of, the actual title would be "you will find me when it's spring" (stupid name length thingy )

Dedicated to :icondukecrescent: who always encourages me to smile!

Inspired by the story of Persephone who was abducted by Hades, but then it was arranged that she will live 4 month with Hades, but the rest of the 8 months of the year with her mother Demeter. And since during those 4 months her mother, the goddess of fertility is sad, and nothing on earth is growing. (meaning it is winter).

model, postprocessing, concept: me
photographer and arrangement of leafs: my boyfriend
textures: :iconprincess-of-shadows:

This photo is one of those photos that is Graphic as well as Photographic. Well on the top half we have the space that your eyes goes into, and at the bottom it is flat as parchment. the model has that Mona Lisa kind of smile and the look in the eyes are very expressive and the angle is great. The only thing I wish she put more detail in the dark areas. I am talking about showing some texture in her hair on the top that would take away from the flatness. I am not faulting what she did but just want to bring these areas to the artists attention. I love the photo and yes she has a beautiful smile... Its nice to see.

The only time a character is ever allowed to sparkle in sunlight is if they grabbed a Super Star from the Mario games!

Real vampires don't sparkle. They just don't.

Jesus Christ is my savior!

I like it too, sigh. What was her name? before Hades stole her... Kore and Cora I believe are the two they used.
