Shadow of the Wood

I did this drawing for the Inner Beauty Contest being put on by a member at DeviantArt. (It won Honorable Mention)

Plato defined eros as something felt for a person--not necessarily physical attraction--but with contemplation it becomes an "appreciation of the beauty within that person." Eros helps the soul recall the knowledge of beauty and contributes to an understanding of spiritual truth.

Love is what draws us out and makes us beautiful. My husband has shown me how amazing eros love can be and I dedicate this image to him.

I saw this photo here and knew it was the one I had to use for reference. I was gracefully given permission by the model, Alper Ergin.
