I prefer the version with nipples, myself, so as to make the juxtaposition of life and death, suppleness and rigor, more "in your face". Either way it is a beautiful pic, Andrew.
@sarah. Are you not doing one for Caption? The theme is 'Away with The Fairies' which could be whatever. I went a bit traditional but it was something that I needed to do. I got all nervous about the nipples after the whole 'spam' episode. Wouldnt want to post anything inappropriate. 'Proper' version is here http://wildwords.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/faerysoft_low.jpg
@well... all of you really! Yes, Caption will not be clamping down on nipples... oo-er! @Sarah. I do hope you will be drawing a fairy for us! Likewise anyone else who'd like to take part. I'd need pics by the end of July to make sure they get into the Caption Programme before we go to print.

ReplyDeleteCool! Hey, I want to draw a fairy. Hmm... what's some activity that you really, really wouldn't expect to see a fairy doing?
ReplyDeleteHelping an old lady across the road? (Unless the road in question is the M3.) Admittedly I tend to focus on the idea of bad fairies ;-)

ReplyDeleteI think there is a whole story to be told here. Maybe I ought to start writing something ;-)
