Description
"Yet since my life the living will profane,
And since my death the happy dead will stain,
A middle state your mercy may bestow,
Betwixt the realms above, and those below:
Some other form to wretched Myrrha give,
Nor let her wholly die, nor wholly live. "
Ovid: Metamorphosis, book 10.
Another illustration to the Metamorphosis, this time Myrrha who flees from her father and from shame and is turned into a myrrh tree by the gods.
Materials: china ink, pencil, watercolours, colour pencils on bamboo fibre board

Bloody beautiful . . . I love the concept, and your source material. Simple and clever use of imagery well executed
