Description I think my scanner is gonna eat shit and die any day now..... it's just not doing well, when ever it is scanning it's like a fat man trying to climb Everest, or any person trying to climb Everest for that matter...........

Well anyway, I liked this picture until I started to do the clouds then I completly fucked it up..... yadda yadda, still good, but not as good as I would like.

Comments would be very much appreciated on this piece because I spent a lot of time on it.

Woot woot, I came to your page because of your awesome icon and I find an awesome artist who's also an aquarius xD. The background is really stunning along with the woman, I really love it, great job . And omg, her clothes. Her clothes are sooooo cool, I really love the design and colors, and the water looks really good, waters generally hard to pull off D:.

NICE representation of my star sign
Actually, she looks like one of those really cool sailor moon villains. Maybe it's the eyes.

I only have 2 copics, both flesh tones

this looks really nice If you do a Gemini I'd probly have to fave that~!!
Do you use something to blend the markers to get that washy effect?? ooh and the flowers look so soft and pretty ^^

oooh I really like her outfit design. Love all the strings and ties, and good job on the flowing hair, too. That's insane.

o.o Damn, but those colors are beautifully soft - I adore the hair especially, it is wonderfully detailed. I fear your marker shading.

Ooooooh, background. *stares obsessively - can't draw backgrounds worth crap*

This is gorgeous, I really love the background and again your composition is very nice. Really nice proportions. I love the colors. The only thing I think that is off is the hand on the left holding the vase... it's bent a little abnormally. Not horribly noticable or anything. I think it would've been nice to see a bit of a reflection in the water, but again no biggy.

As a whole this is a wonderful piece of art! Great job

All I can say is GORGEOUS. This is just so beautiful. The drawing, the coloring, everything is just perfect. I love the trees in the bg and the way you did the water. This one of your best and most complete works. Into my favs it goes!!!

What media did you use? prisma pencils? because I ADORE the way you did the backround. It's almost like the focus blurs the backround and sharpens the aquarius lady (I'm aquarius, useless fyi).

I like the coloring A LOT.

kitchigai-neko [2005-06-22 02:34:36 +0000 UTC]

Wow,. her hair and clothing are my favorite parts but overall the piece is wonderful. I love how the background seems more faded and less detailed in black than the character making her stand out more. I'd like to say however the middle finger on her right hand shouldn't -do- that. oO;;

That water is SO COOL!

You used Prisma colors, right? I NEED THOSE MARKERS. You work magic with them. Were they expensive?

If this was a print I'd buy it.
