This was fun to color.I had the sketch of her lying in my drawer for few months, and one night I took it out and started to color with my pencils.The lightning was kinda dim,so the lines went abit 'here and there'...I liked it though :)
She's a child of the sun and the fire, and she fell in love with a man who represents the moon and the darkness.Now she's crying for forgivness from her god and creator.
Maybe I'll show you her man later.. :)

Yet again this picture is amazing..I love the shading, id never think of doign that...Do u think of stories before you draw ....Do u sort of get inspiration from books?

2 Anu Toivonen replies: "I don't usually think of stories before I start to draw.it's more about capturing one moment.it happens though, that the story develops along with the drawing.these pics are usually portraits, but I try to give them a feeling that there might be something else behind them as well."

Wow... I was going to say something ´bout your shading, but that´s been done... So I guess I´ll just tell you that you did a good job with the expression, and that the tatoos are great!

I just realized that not only are they star crossed lovers but they seemed to have actually crossed a star! The sun of course. How very enteresting.

Wow, such depressing stories! I think more than anything else, i love that single tear. She is a child of the sun, fire corses through her viens yet her tears are just as wet as anybodies. Amazing coloring, and a wonderfull story. Admitedly, the theme of star crossed lovers has been portrayed in many ways across history and will continue to be enterpreted in many more ways.

This is a beautiful picture i love it. The little story you made is perfect, you should put the picture of her lover on here.

Very nice. I like the drama in her face. The colours are wonderful in the tone and shadowing. You did a great job.
