I love this picture. I choose this picture after we looked over it in class. The picture is about a girl who is becoming a women and she is climbing to get to this saffron crocus flowers. You can tell it's a girl because of the ponytail in the back. I love how the artist ran the colors together and how the girl is colorful. I also love how the artist made her hair blue so you can tell that her hair is starting to grow in from being shaved when she was a girl. Everything about this picture makes it so great. What do you feel about it?
I think that the hair thing is interesting. I love my hair and would never shave it, but I guess if I was brought up the way that they were I would probably accept it. I do love the colors and the story behind it is so interesting.
ReplyDeleteThis picture always looked odd to me until I understood the story behind it. It is so interesting to unravel the traditions that women had in communities that brought them together and bound them as a gender.
