"Eyes don't lie"

Paper collage

7 days ago in SoF 17

"Eyes are the mirror of our soul."

The silhouettes, shapes and structures got my attention when I started to make this collage. Notice how the red dress is presenting itself strongly like an epitome of life feeding the shapes sorrounding. By editing the collage extra colors came in place spinning the the whole process. At the end I saw that one thing was there all along absorbing the energy a round - eyes. Now I understand why eyes are the mirror of our soul. Eyes don't lie.

Paper collage & mix media
