― Mikhail Bulgakov, The Master and Margarita

Some days I feel bruised
A silhouette of verse emerges
To mirror my mood
And with every word
I undress my soul
Baring it to the world”

in a forbidden garden of love;

“As we drifted away from the Tower Bridge, I saw a single silhouette standing against the bright lamplight. Even now when I was nearly asleep, I could recognise her. Her shoulders were hunched up as if she was upset. Whether she was upset that she had nearly killed me or that she had let me get away, I was unsure. Then she turned around and walked to join the other silhouettes standing in a group farther back. Now I could not see which one was Rose – they were all joint together to make one.”
― Erica Sehyun Song, Thorns in the Shadow

“The "Mona Lisa" is an optical illusion created by Leonardo Da Vinci.

The woman in the painting "The Mona Lisa" doesn't appear to be always smiling.

When you look at the mouth you feel she looks sad, melancholic, and hostile. But when you look at the eyes you feel she is happy and cheerful.

Leonardo perfected the "sfumato technique," which translated literally from Italian means "vanished or evaporated." He created imperceptible transitions between light and shade, and sometimes between colors.

"Why the Silhouette?" appears as a simple story of a few individuals, but when you look at it from a distance, it appears to show you the philosophy of life.

I have tried to create imperceptible transitions between light and darkness and sometimes between colors.

Hope you see the illusion in "Why the Silhouette?”

“In the forgotten corners,
a dark shadow emerges
from the hard and often frozen earth.
Like a secret, long hidden in the abyss,
a mysterious silhouette emenates
from the cataclysmic gloom.”
― DarkNightBeacon

“Dipping my bare brush
into your garish gold eyes,
I draw your dreams close.
They dance divinely within,
sparking silhouettes alight.
