Pre-Kiwi (but barely) - Heron Blue

As the name may, or may not, suggest did the inspiration for this particular piece come from the song "Heron Blue" by Sun Kil Moon. Pay attention to the third and fourth quatrains, this image was especially stirred by those*.
I'm never quite sure if the stories behind the pictures come before or while painting. In this case, I would say the story is as follows: rape, possibly of a prostitute, followed by death by constriction. Also, on a deeper level, lack of dreams, or soullessness.
Another two major inspirations for this picture come from this picture by "berkozturk" and the general style of cellar-fcp.
I'll stop rambling now and let you look at the picture... (yes, it might need a fair warning for mature content...)

*(lyrics: Her baby skin her old black dress /Her hair it twists round her necklace /Constricts and chokes like ruthless vines /To sleep she overtakes her?

Her room is painted Heron Blue /Lit by candlelight and chandelier /And from her headboard perched so high /A million dreams have passed her
