Description

i used newspaper clipping form the obituaries and pasted the descriptions of their deaths for the background, and then cut out their faces and pasted the names over the faces of the actual people who died. She is my lady who claims souls :) i did her in charcoal.

O_o I love this. What I thought of before I read the description (about the Obits) was this poem by Anne Sexton (my fave)

I have gone out a posessed witch
haunting the air, braver at night
Dreaming evil, I have done my hitch
over the plain houses light by light
lonely thing, twelve fingered, out of mind
A woman like that is not a woman quite,
I have been her kind.

there's more but that's the first part that made me think of her..hovering over buildings..haunting the air. Very cool piece.
