I really like the subtle text in the background. She looks disembodied, and the muted tones really highlight her sadness. She does need someone to give her a hug and take her out dancing!
I agree with everyone. I see someone that has lost their self, I want to take her/him in my arms and give comfort. Unfortunately I can not make out the words but the picture says it all. Very nice.
She looks desperate. I think you're right: misery wants company. If someone came to her, just as sad as her, they could be sad together. That's not so sad at all...
This goes well with last week's piece, too. I love the type treatment - very subtle! Happy Holidays, Michael...thanks for your regular comments on my blog!!
She looks so sad...maybe a nice hot cup of tea would help :-)

ReplyDeleteHave a happy holiday:>
She looks as though her need may be overwhelming, she looks like she has almost lost her strength. Such a sad yet beautiful design for "help"!
ReplyDeleteOch! She looks so sad! Quick. Give her some ice cream! (At least, that's what I want when I look like that!)
ReplyDeleteI always wondered if company wants misery.
ReplyDeletewow...the subtle words in the background are powerful. Nice color choices too!

She does look sad, and needs help! :)
ReplyDeleteCool illustration!
ReplyDeleteGreat composition. Its like she's drifting in her sea of sadness. I like the text, but wonder if it could be stated just once across the image?
ReplyDeleteI really like this palette. I agree, it's easier to be miserable when you've got someone to share it with.
ReplyDeleteIt took a moment before I noticed the lettering in the background. Very intriguing illustration, as usual. And I'll save a mug a shrew brew for you.
