Ophelia Copyright 1999 Meredith Dillman	Watercolor and acrylic, plus a pastel study for the latter, by Meredith Dillman. A graceful, poetic pair of interpretations, influenced by Ms. Dillman's admiration for Pre-Raphaelite art and by her background in manga (Japanese-style comics).

Ophelia Copyright ©1996 Kara Siemiaszko.	This photo conveyed a sense of eerie stillness even in an earlier version (on a now-defunct site), before Ms. Siemiaszko's manipulation of the color transplanted it into an alien, dreamlike setting. A friend of the artist modeled for this photograph in Mendon Ponds in Rochester NY. Inspired by John William Waterhouse's paintings.
Inspired by the Natalie Merchant song. Especially impressive for a figure that started out as a Poser 2.0 cybermannequin! A visit to Ms. Boswell's online gallery will cure anyone of the notion that digital imaging isn't "real art".		Ophelia Copyright 1998, 1999 Cheryl Boswell
Ophelia Katy Kianush, Copyright ©1996. This and other paintings by the artist can be viewed at the "Art Arena on-line Gallery": http://www.artarena.force9.co.uk	In the Oriental "miniature" tradition (intended as an illustration for poetry), with a healthy dose of Art Nouveau and stained glass. Ophelia is luminous, pale and sad amid a profusion of flowers and plant life. Visit Ms. Kianush's site to learn more about miniatures, and to view her extraordinarily varied body of work.
One of a series of stark Ophelia images by this Australian photographer. (Also be sure to check out Sam's multimedia "warped 90s comic", DNA Doll, when you have a bit of time to invest in the experience. It's extensive and weird, and well worth it.)

Ophelia #2 © Margarethe Vanderpas	This Ophelia seems to have saved her soul by becoming one with the water. She looks back out into the human world, eyes pleading for understanding. I'm continually amazed by how much can be said with the simplest-seeming digital manipulation of a photographic image. Ms. Vanderpas brings this intense sense of light and color to an impressive collection of works, in both pixels and paints.
In pastels, literally fading away, with the waters lapping eagerly at the hem of her gown. Ms. Rodriguez is an emerging artist with a gothic sensibility and a style all her own.		Ophelia © Mary Rodriguez
Laurel as "Ophelia", 1989 Image © 1997 Kim Stringfellow	A mesmerizing, deceptively simple portrayal from a photographic artist with a profound sense of archetype. Ms. Stringfellow's website exhibits her portraits, "photographic constructions", and multimedia work The Charmed Horizon...drawing from myth, literature and religious lore to stunning effect.
