Beautiful, Marina! I love your continued theme. It is interesting how here you bring the artist's inspiration, work, and creation (I seem to be stuck on that word) to the fore, while the artist is in the background. It is in a sense a reversal of the idea that the artist is the "real" one and her work is the "illusion." Then there is the realization that the artist is actually reflected in a mirror. Compound this with the whole oval appearing to slip out of the frame, and the illusion itself is shattered. You are presenting so many thought-provoking aspects. I think of a new one each time I look at it. Your skill is awesome, too!
