Self-Portrait Contest Winner

Many thanks to everyone who submitted self-portraits for our contest.  There weren't any rules really.  The picture had to represent your idea of yourself.  This beautiful image was submitted by our follower, Whirligig.  This representation of Whirligig as an impish avatar is full of life, charm and intrigue.  It's a beautiful image.  Thanks, Whirligig!

Thank you very much! I'm afraid that more often my avatar is furry or scaly, taking the form of various animals, so this is a rare glimpse of it being sort of human...I have to admit dressing an avatar is much easier and cheaper than real life :)

I particularly like the outfit and the purple hair. : )

This is a very pretty portrait. It reminds me of one of the "Water Babies" prints that were so popular in the late 19th century.

Yes, now that you mention it, Dashwood, I can see the similarities.
