This is great! I love the colours and the concept, and it manages to be enchantingly sweet as well as incredibly creepy. *grin* Great work!

This is creepy in an entirely beautiful sort of way.

I like the concept, but the creepy, exquisitely minimal execution is even better. It's a great combination of colors (like newsprint, hah) and the daintiness of the girls is a nice contras to the shadows-- although even the shadow-hands have delicate little fingers and nails, which just adds that extra creepy vibe. In short, heh, I really like it. It's a little visually odd that the girls to the sides are symmetrical, and their shadows aren't; I feel like there should be slightly more difference to their poses but, that's an artistic choice.

Very lovely drawing, and nicely done. :)

It's totally creepy and lovely at the same time. I love this shade of red contrasting against the black.

And I keep thinking of xxxholic when I look at the shadows. ^^

this is sooooo cool *A* The very clean, graphic-design feel of it makes it so stricking! And I love the use of black, its so BAM. I fail at expressing my love of specific artworks. <3<3<3

Okay, dude, now that's creepy. Little girls without faces always scare me, and the minimalism of the colors and outlines, the sort of Dr.-Suess-does-Chuthulu feel to it, all work together so well. Great job!
