Smiling Beauty


"A smile happens in a flash, but its memory can last a lifetime"

That being said, it is also true that people are stingy with their smile.
What I would like to say is

"If someone is too tired to give a smile, leave one of your own, because no one needs a smile as much as those who have none to give"

Smiling Beauty was done in 2006. I am so much in love with this picture I made in Illustrator. There are some flaws still it doesn't matter. Maybe coz I love that smile :)

I had come across some pictures of beautiful women and I wanted to try one of those. I chose this one.
Hope you all like it too...

Have a Smiling Day :)

There seems to be less things to smile about in this world. BUT, I always make sure to have an extra pinch of fairy dust to induce a smile or two. And, here's a bit of a smile for you! :D

ps: * your verification word spells SMUSEL!* Isn't that cute!

soulbrush said...

she's lovely, but i sometimes wonder whether our smiles just mask other things (or am i just being an old cynic?)

Sunaina said...

The sketch is beautiful and your explanation too good.
You have got quite a talent :)

Deepa Gopal said...

@Deepa, very true! And I don't agree with that:)Do you?

Deepa Gopal said...

Welcome Lady Prism...Hope you enjoy your stay here. And indeed thats quite nice a verificatn word for this post:) I am glad tht u've ur fairy dust to smile...and I think every1 shud've some of their own!

Deepa Gopal said...

@ Soul, could be! But I believe a smile can help forget the stress that u suffered until then. Whatever sorrow I have, once I see people/friends I forget it and enjoy their company (its subdued for the time being). I don't say tht its a mask...its a relief:)

Deepa Gopal said...

@ Welcome Sunaina...Thank you so much! Off to visit you:)
