Fountain Of Youth

This is my second series of attempts at this concept. I spent a lot of time on it, as I did on the earlier ones. I felt that this version featured better composition and a more interesting pose for the female figure. Perhaps I was working for so long I couldn't be objective, but I was surprised when the response when I "tested" it on a couple of galleries was (for the most part) a deafening silence. I did get one detailed critical analysis of the artistic shortcomings of the piece. I briefly considered suicide, but decided to buy a new car instead. Someday, when I feel like beating a dead horse, I will take another run at it!
