Following on Darkest Angel's comments the model reminds me of silent screen star Clara Butt, who I believe was called the "It Girl" (not at all to be confused with posh Brit drunk, Tara-Palmer-Wossername, current holder of the title)This pic certainly has IT anyway! It manages to be both Iconic and intimate at the same time. Am listening to the Be Good Tanya's whilst writing this. Must be something in the name!

I don't care what those narrow minded people say about how they feel about Art. Everyone has there own idea on what art is. And you do a wonderful job at it and don't let anyone else tell you different! Thank You for creating such awesome art!
