Artist's Comments

This was started over a month ago, and was originally meant to be something of a contemplation on death, religion and reincarnation.
During my work on it though, it took on a life of it's own, and now it is for attemptestock's "fragile things" contest, her stock was used for this work.

Aww I really love the little boy! The whole picture is gorgeous! But, why did she die? And is the child hers? I'm guessing not or she wouldn't be a virgin!

hmm...even more intriguing! lol I love the little boy, he's like "Oh, hi, viewer. No what am I supposed to do?" He is so adorable: I just want to scoop him up and let him live with me! lol
