Description
A Voice Silenced, Peace remains on holiday, Democracy & Freedom eludes her once again.
As life looses its grip and the woman we once knew slips away, her last conscious thoughts in this earthly existence sing out.........
I am an endangered species but I sing no victim's song.
I am a woman, I am an artist, and I know where my voice belongs.
I am a woman, I exist I shake my fist but not my hips.
My skin is dark my body is strong I sign of rebirth, no victim's song.
They cut out my sex, they bind my feet, Silence my reflex no tongue to speak.
I work in the fields, I work in the store, I type up the deals and I mop the floors.
I am an endangered species but I sing no victim's song.
I know where my soul belongs......
I know where I belong.....

System getting worse and worse still can't finish up any WIP's or do any new work. Installed Photoshop CS4 the other day and did this as a test so thought I would post as I have been wanting to do a memorial for Neda the young woman killed during the protest in Iran for some time. Please tell me do you think this picture is too dark; should I have made it lighter? Thanks and sorry for my lack of comments lately Steel

I do not think it is too dark, It has the right effect. Very surreal effect. This is a bold step for you. I have never seen your work take on this type of Art and it is good to see. It is excellent. I hope you will explore more types of work like this. I give it 1000 Rendered Stars and it is a nice tribute to Neda

No. I don't think it is too dark. It came out how you felt and thats never wrong. Try to be strong and it will all work out eventually.Believe.
