Description My entry to 's April colouring contest! Of course, it's Alice from Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland.

Beautiful lineart by
Lineart: [link]

I saw the lineart and I just couldn't resist. I went for a sort of bright, storybook colouring style to best fit with the cute, cartoony look of the lineart. But really... to be honest, I'm not that good at colouring in. I'm better at colouring on. Thankfully, paintovers are acceptable in the contest. And I remembered to add back in ~Mio09 's little URL after I painted over it.

I made the swirly tendril things look a little like earthworms which was unintentional, but never mind. I guess they could be worms. Happy, happy worms.

I'll try to do something less sickeningly cute for my next deviation.

Oooh. This one is really nifty. I love the use of the red toadstool to draw the eye to Alice. Also, that is the sleaziest looking chesire cat I've ever seen xD

It is pretty sleazy. I worry for Alice's safety, honestly. She looks terribly naive!
Thank you!

Beautiful painting job! I love the lighting and the bright yet soft colors. It really adds depth. The greenish-blue lighting coming from the darker parts of the piece stops the mushrooms from blending in, they stand out nicely.

Sorry I took a few days to get back to you! Thank you for the sweet comment. I used Adobe Photoshop CS3. I fancy updating to CS5 but am currently weighing up the pros and cons.
