| 14 Jun 2002 |  Anita M. King | Beautifully drawn. I want to know more about her story!
*smiles* I wonder if I would recognize the tale? If she's an Orthodox saint, then it's likely I've heard it before.
Um... maybe *grins* | |
| 19 Oct 2002 |  Gabrielle Duran | Oooh, this is nice... I would love to know the story behind it. Her headress is very nice; I like the dangleys and the transparent fabric. I am glad that you kept this as a sketch.Thanks, sketches do have a more 'raw' quality about them and this picture is likely to stay this way.  | |
| 13 Jan 2003 | Kate | This reminds me of a story I know about a girl who gets martyred for being a Baha'i' (a religion) who lived in the Middle-east... it was really sad, it made me cry! It looks so much like her, I instantly like it.
I don't think I ever read this story, but I'm glad you like the picture. | |
| 10 Feb 2003 |  Linda Gock | Very nice detail, she looks very graceful.Thank you! | |
| 12 Feb 2003 |  Karen E. Tucker | I love how much expression you put on her face with just a few pen-strokes! She looks very shy and innocent, but I think there's a little coyness in there at the same time. If I may ask, what was the title of the story; I'd like to look it up if it's available anywhere near me? Erm.. *looks embarrassed* Sorry, its been a while since I drew this and I'm afraid I don't remember off the top of my head. And it is a bit.... specific to be easily looked up in a normal way, I think. Thanks for commenting! | |
| 25 Sep 2003 | Jules | Oh! I know that book! I read it too, I don;t remember the title exactly, it was a great book. Gorgeous picture!!! Awsome!! Um... when I read it it was only one part in a collection... so you may not be talking about the same story. | |
| 23 Oct 2003 | Maike | Very nice picture! The clothing is beautifully done, and the pose seems natural while still being nicely medieval - she could be a real woman as well as a manuscript illustration. Very good!    Natalia Nikitin replies: "Thank you!" | |
| 12 Dec 2003 | Falcongirl | I read one called Anna of Byzantium, was that the title?
This is gorgeous too by the way.Thanks! I'm afraid not, I think. This is not really a novel illustration and isn't to do with any story written in recent years. | |
| 11 Mar 2004 | Astri Snodgrass | Wonderfully drawn! I love the headpiece and the entire outfit. I think I will just stare awhile...
~stridge~Thanks, I know the costume looks elabrate, but I wish I was also sure it is historically correct. X) | |
| 31 Mar 2004 |  Joanna 'Myre' Fuller | She has a very sweet face. I like her! Thanks! Yup, she's not altogether unpretty. ^^ | |
