Description
This one was supposed to become a sister to my `Papillon`; a portrait of a woman with a black lace mask. Halfway down the canvas the hippie in me got the upper hand though, so we totally forgot that mask!
All I heard in my mind was Jimi Hendrix` Little Wing and Stevie Nicks` Sarah... Sorry guys, totally lost the Fifty Shades mood and gone astray, maybe next time, OK?!
This is what happens when the subject takes its own life; `Peace, peace... Flower Power` and all that to you my friends!!!
