The background of trees (wallpaper sample) adds a fresh air to the drawing. She is tethered by the gravity of the situation, she has a strange blue rectangle by her feet. A very tiny swimming pool or a multi-dimensional portal. I hope viewers see a lighthearted story in this work. I have an ongoing project to draw the figure, with the figure on an up-cycled material that allows open-ended narration.
