Created with Corel Painter IX

I did this for a contest (Secret Places) over at Epilogue (placed 3rd).

Partially inspired by movies like "Labyrinth" and books by Charles DeLint and others.

You'll have to look close if you want to see EVERYTHING that's in this painting. It took forever, because of all the tiny details.

This reminds me of when I was little and used to play in my grandma's attic. She found me up there one day dressed up as a princess and standing in front of a mirror very similar to the one pictured here.

This is beautiful work. You have officially been added to my personal heroes list.

Is this not every young girl's dream? And some women, too. :-)

OMG! This reminds me sooo much of one of my stories. One of the girls in it finds a mirror in an attic and it transports her to another place.

I wish favorites could be graded. This would be among the "most fav" of my favorites. I love the concept. I wonder how closely connected these two girls are, if they're even different people. Do they share some kind of memory? If she were to step through that mirror somehow, would she know who she was in that world?

Ok, I have been coming back to this pic for a long time and I finally noticed those little footprints in the dust. This is great. Thanks again.
