The Actress
I think I did A pretty good job on this one. The background didn't tourn out the way I hoped, but the face is looking pretty good. I also like the texture of this new paper, I was afraid it might be too much, but it's actually nice.
The Actress
“The sound of the crowd outside
Resonates in your head
As you try to delay the moment
You have to stand before them.
The anxiety rises as time passes,
It’s already is too late to opt out,
The only thing you can feel
Is that you’ll let them down
With a rubbish performance.
But now, the curtains slowly open,
Letting a blinding ray of light into your eyes
As you breathe deeply to calm down,
Now is your time to go.”
