Air and wind be one thing right? And somehow having always asociated wind with freedom this picture managed to capture the whole spirit of air wind and freedom for me! Is she an elemental?

I felt so liberated while and after drawing this! Like a burden was liften from my heart... I even made a sketch first and never though I could improve on it, well I did! Maybe I'll try to make the other elements too, but I wonder if I can come up with another such idea! *starts to ponder over earth...* Someone bring me thunder & lightning :)

This one is so beautiful. The feeling it gives is just awesome.
I can totally understand the title and it sure must have been wonderful to draw this.
I love the face and the hair - both very realistic - and the serene smile she's got.
The technique is awesome, and all to all it is simply a wonderful, wonderful picture.
I am amazed.

Sometimes the prison is up there,sometimes the snare is only mental, sometimes your are metaphysical
This reminds me of tow things: the last chapters of Scott Westerfeld's 'Specials', and the Alanis song 'Wunderkind':
I am a magnet for all kinds of deeper wonderment
I am a wunderkind oh oh oh oooooh
I am a pioneer naive enough to believe this
I am a princess on the way to my throne
I really like this picture, in short 10
