GIRL WITH BLUE BALLOON
Yesterday afternoon I walked by this primitive picture of a girl with balloon. I had photographed this drawing before but did not like the final image. So I re-photographed it and I think this time I prefer the result.
My girlfriend & I have frequently seen this image on our walks & find it most disturbing. The poor girl appears to have her mouth stitched shut & thus has no voice! Very nice rendering of the image though.
I absolutely agree it is a disturbing image and as I said I photographed it before but I darkened the overall picture and intensified the colour, which heightened the effect.
