I've been admiring this for awhile now and finally got chance to comment.
The level of detail on this piece is wonderful. Considering my work with pen is rather tragic and embarrassing, I'm ever impressed with those artists, like yourself, who use it so well.
I loved the lighting in this piece. It almost seemed like it could have been a stained glass window. Realistic and yet somehow abstract. Beautiful work.

Thanks so much, Fereshteh! I worked real hard on this piece. The original pencil sketch came together so well, that for about a week or so I was afraid to finish it in pen, afraid that I would mess it up. So, thanks for the comment!

So iconic and structured . . . I've been looking for about 5 minutes now, and there's a sort of sarcophagus? behind her w/ two star - eyes . . her dress ends in a calla lily shape . . . I know the trees mean something? (I might as well post this, because as soon as I do, I'll realize what's actually in the pic.) It's lovely work Jodie. I love the severe beauty of the figure.

Ahhh, how cool I wasn't too far off, for a change. But I love this one

Yep, looks like you got it! It was primarily the two stars for eyes, with a sort of abstract "beast" behind this beauty, in which the darkness is almost a character in itself. This could also be called "The Rose *and* the Dark." Yes, the dark surrounds her almost like death or a tomb, but she is still herself. Roses and lily-shapes ... for purity and love.
