On the subject of eyes and their magnetic power...I went to boarding school when I was 13, and all of the new students were decorating their doors (to their individual rooms) as a means of self-expression and introduction. Everyone else had cutouts of the handsome boys of the time, or rock bands. I cut out over one hundred eyes from magazines that I had and carefully taped them to my door in a collage. I thought it was lovely, but it really spooked out my classmates. I was completely surprised to find that they thought I was trying to drive people away from my door, or even (I laugh at this now) trying to put a spell on passersby. Ah well... they didn't get it, poor things. Really gorgeous.

Cool isn't it :) No co-incidences in life you know. Who knew that you liked to draw eyes! I've been obsessed with eyes since I can remember - obviously because my name has the same meaning - every time I start drawing, inadvertently, I will put 80% of the detailing and focus and obsess with the eyes :) Well!

I too love drawing eyes. Back in school, I used to sketch some of the best eyes I have seen. Will show it to you some day, if I have a few sketches of those days still preserved. I don't know for sure - I might have thrown them, but am sure would have at least a couple of them stacked somewhere. For me, they are the first thing that attracts me towards a girl, and they seem to convey a world to somebody ! You know - another co-incidence. I too love drawing eyes.
