    Oh, how all Debussey and La Mer and the Faun and beautiful. And the title is perfect. Can't stop looking at her.

    I'm back again, because I love this. Either born of the flower or dreaming the flower.

    Very nice. That dominant color seems an unusual (dreamlike?) pinkish purple.

    Wonder what makes the brain-eye put a woman in a flower. I feel I should have an answer, but . . .

    This reminds me of "liquid orchids". Thats what I told the anesthesiologist the "relaxing" medication was that he'd just put into my vein. I wish he'd had let me stay in that state a little longer before he applied the knockout drug. Gave me a glimpse of what "chasing the dragon" means

    Thanks, all.

    AH, this was easy to name.

    PA, I love "liquid orchids"; perfect description for that med.

    Yesterday was a day for flowers and flower reference at many of the blogs I visit (Jo's, -K-'s and PA's spring to mind). Cool coincidence.

    I love seeing the texture of the paper coming through in the enlargement. And everything else.

    Paula, thanks. I like the texture, too. I'm also going to try out a surface with a different texture.
