I have to say that despite the semi-Gothic/Fride-of-Franksenstein vibe I'm getting from these images, you still don't have to look hard at all to see the beauty of the woman beneath the paint. Pics #4 and #5 probably show it the best.

I probably shouldn't say 'semi-Gothic' or 'Bride of Frankenstein', because not only are they crude approximations, but also because I believe that when you try to pigeonhole any type of art you're diminishing it a little. Let's just say that when it comes to do my Danse Macabre, I hope she'll be there to take my hand.

Oh man, are these spectacular! I knew they were interesting in the little bit you could see as an avatar... full size, they are stunning!

Thanks to the artist and her patron!

I was kind of wondering the same thing. However, if she were Sylvia Ji but denied it, I wouldn't blame her. People need their privacy. Even nobodies like me. >> ^rottenseed:

So are you Sylvia Ji, or do you just appreciate her art?


I picked up on that too. I've long thought of that look as 'Mexican goth'. Looks much better than pasty-faced pretty boys who act with their hair. >> ^dystopianfuturetoday:

I see a little dios de los muertos influence too. Beautiful.

Number six is also very nice, but I think #4 is my fave. It gives us the closest look at her face, with all the wonderful details. Also, its sparsity of red when compared to the others makes it unique. To me the chartreuse background and coppery brown flowers give it a feeling of autumn. Maybe that's why the petals are falling. >> ^Fusionaut:

You are all so VERY welcome! (So sorry I haven't been keeping up in here!)

>> ^kronosposeidon:

It's nice to see these originals so we can see the exquisite detail.

I wish I was Sylvia! I would be proud to admit such amazing work.
However I am 'dark' and pasty. heh.

I pick the reddest ones, but #4 was special to me for the reasons you said, very well put!
