Working with my book, constantly it would seem - I finally decided I needed to do something unconnected to the book.
As for the picture - spent more time on it than I thought I would (given that there is no background to speak of), but I got fascinated with the curve of her back and the faint trace of muscles there. Aiming for a soft, discreet and quiet sort of look, here. No grand colours and nothing to interrupt the peace and silence.
Want to see some closeups?
