The face is not the face of the tormented, but the face of hope. Unlike the piece <a href="http://gossamergypsy.com/art/angel-of-mercy-mixed-media" rel="nofollow">Angel of Mercy</a>, which has multiple opposing meanings for the syringe symbol. Tinman's Heart conjures the image of a potential antidote/cure/vaccine.

That being said, I absolutely love the artwork; your ability to render fae-tinged characters is coying and sweet. And your lyrical description is captivating as well, its poetry could almost stand alone.
