I really like this work because it captures dark feelings using very light colors, traditionally reserved for portraying feelings of purity. Position of hands is seemingly innocent, lips attractive, lush and alive, angel-like wings are beautiful, pure looking.
But eyes are concealed and that is an omnious sign.

Also somewhat of a scultpure-looking, ashy feel to the body again creates feelings of non-existence. Although the model is obviously young, her hair is ashy white, dry, whithering, lifeless. This image holds numerious examples of contrast and contradiction.

Here death is not represented in an obvious ways, but far more intelligently, glimpses of death are portred by negating or concealing life-like aspects of the model and nature.

Amazing work! Brilliant, intelligent!
