Illustration Friday-- Caged

Ugh.  Lousy prompt.  Depressing.  But!



 Definition #10 on dictionary.com for "cage" is:  a loose, sheer, or lacy overdress worn with a slip or close-fitting dress.  HA!!

    ha! That's a funny definition. And I agree, I found this week's prompt a little depressing, who want to think caged when it's 900 degrees out?
    Love this caged lady, though! great, Krista

    Hey! Great one Krista! I bet no one else will come up with it. You are an original! Love the "loose" style and movement! Great pose and emotion. I was tempted to do something sad... but depressing is not my forte. :o)
    I see it's not your's either. Now I feel like getting dressed up.... not in a "cage" and dancing :o) Thanks!!!!

    that's great Krista, I agree, not my favorite prompt, I keep having trouble with the prompts lately. I think it is me, my brain is too bogged down to be creative. I love your take on it though, she's a fun character. Nice work.

    I love it! Fashion is a great way to lighten this prompt. :) The swingy style is so fun--now I want to ransack my sewing room and go all 1920s!

    I am simply in LOVE with your interpretation of this theme. I did a fashion interp as well! This is awesome and I love her style and the free spirited look on that beautiful little face!

    Bravo for bucking the status quo!
