uhm.....i spent around 4 days straight painting this..or more? who knows. That's all i've been doing for the past I dunno how many days, haha, I have no life :p.

uhh...well, basically I (1) want to paint something Asian (2) am trying to not be afraid of colours :p. THis is perhaps the most saturated pic i've made. ehh. I almost cried at the embroideries!!! It's so frustrating!

I don't know how many of you are going to say "ooh this is like Louis with an Asian Claudia" etc. etc., well the truth is that I really really like the young girl + grown man motif that is most commonly represented/known by the Claudia+Louis relationship. heh

This is really marvelous! The designs in the clothing and sheets, you painted yourself? the skin is very good too! thought the girl doesn't seem as affected by the lighting as the man. The mood is perfect, and I'm lovin those lamps.

thanks! yes, the clothing and the curtain embroideries are painted. I agree, but I noticed it too late. don't wanna goback and change it anymore >_<, but thanks though, really appreciated because it will help with my next painting XD (I think i'm going blind from sitting in front of the computer too long..:P)

oh, positively beautiful. I know being inspired by gothic culture can make it hard to use a lot of color but recently I've just been using way too much. Perhaps I am betraying it now...anyway you did a great job with the color. And that guy is just beautiful *_*

Ah, so this is why you dissappeared again recently!

And this is simply incredible, Kay.

Great. You should use this much saturation more often :P

The work on those embroideries really paid off. This is a definite fave :hug:

Poets say science takes away from the beauty of the stars - mere globs of gas atoms. I, too, can see the stars on a desert night, and feel them. But do I see less or more?

Of course it is unfair to compare Adolf Hitler and George W. Bush: Hitler was actually elected.
