— Well, maybe it didn't turn out to be a Valentine—
but it's introspective -heartbroken lady, sitting on a unique piece of furniture—
tells me about 'how much she hoped her lips would attract the man in her heart,
but she's now found 'that hasn't happened, and she's wounded.
The shirt— she chose to wear, and the stockings
again tell, how much she tried to please him, only to find herself
still— in the 'friend" catagory.

eh, not that I personally ever left 'throngs of ladies -broken hearted, and staring into mirrors with tear-stained faces... ——— Hey— I like it !
You create what you experience. Thats why had 'I rendered that same lady you'd see she'd have her arms crossed, eyebrows 'narrowed and down 'looking down her nose, with feet close together —
saying — " hey you 'get away -you old Coot..."

What I find interesting about this image is that it is all about body language - her face is untouched, with completely default settings and (therefore) no expression. Yet the overall impression is unhappiness.

I originally wanted to add a few more props to tell the whole story (a discarded rose, a "Dear Jane" card, an unopened present...), but I think I got the emotion I wanted from the picture right off the mark, so I'm gonna leave it as is.

Original pose by Anat Dayag, tweaked (and then some) by me.

Excellent image!


Great representation of unhappiness; and I like the depth of the space around the couch.

It's not what you look like, when you're doing what you're doing;
It's what you're doing, when you're doing what it looks like you're doing.
