Artist's Comments
Trace bodies cold like steal and make a fire like lashes on a hill
because I once was a pharaoh a long time ago when liquid was fragile and supple were little girls
but I once took a look through my festering wounds and made for sea
mermaid girl laid round me with slippery echoes and murky seas
but shells never stay, shells always break
so I turned my fins to wings and made for land once more
where castles were built and royal brinks polished like glassy mazes of winding nowhere
and the lady bugs still visit and the cherub faces still breath
because I once was a pharaoh gone to a mermaid girl
but shells never say a word
I once was nondescript
but now im queen

 reports, 1d 9h agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.56 Traditional Representation - Vector Contest^Ikue

How would you have painted DaVinci's Mona Lisa? Show me using only Vectors. |

It's easy to explain simple things so they seem to be complex...to explain complex things so they seem easy - that's the real challenge!

My Pink account
it feels like something that shouldve stepped out of the sandman comics or something... maybe one of the characters roaming around the dreamworld... a queen eating little people up!

my mind not only wanders, it sometimes leaves completely
prints
I love the fact that the queen seems to be eating all evidence of her past. Maybe she was once nondescript but by eating her subjects, no-one will ever know her humble beginings and her evolution from sea life to winged thing to queen will remain mythological.
Love the description and the photo really wotks in black and white, it seems to add to the mythology.
