In this piece, I wanted our character clad in black to symbolize how she mourns a loss. The white of her sleeves underneath show peace and hope, but she chooses to cover it up with this thick black drapery, because she'd rather let her golden heart bleed. Her head is in the water, where she can drown the world out, and her sadness is so deep and loud, even the white water lilies recede into shadow.
