Myrrha

Myrrha's atelier

I absolutely love her style! She manages to combine most of the things I love in a very pleasing composition; there's some of Sulamith Wülfing's etherity and light mist, there's some Aborigin pointillism, there's symbolism and patterns and colors, there's some of Lesley Anne Ivory... Just love what she does. :-)
