You know she is dropping that handkerchief for come gentleman to pick up for her.

I really like the proportions of this piece. The black and white are nicely balanced and the handkerchief is a nice pop of color.

Of course - why else hold a handkerchief?

And thanks for noticing the proportions - it's one of the things I really like about this piece.

This was extremely fun to make. I had a tough time choosing what to put in her hand. First it was a bird, next it was a cigarello with metalllic gold swirls of smoke and then finally I decided upon the handkerchief for the color and 3-dimension aspect.
