| 15 Jun 2004 |  Elizabeth Kaaera Thompson | Loading... Very good! It sort of creeps me out--she doesn't seem to have any hair! It scares me... *goes crawl in little hole*
Congrats on Mods Choice, btw. | |
| 15 Jun 2004 | Apatooki | Loading... Lol. She really doesn't look chinese. But oh well. Who cares! Really unique way of potraying her eh?=) grats. | |
| 15 Jun 2004 | Alexis Lane Shepard | Loading... She looks less like a Chinese princess and a little more like a harlequin to me, I have to say, but I'm loving the concept! | |
| 15 Jun 2004 | Anonymous | Loading... It almost looks like a paint by number  | |
| 15 Jun 2004 | Christa | Loading... You made a masterpiece out of plain shapes. It would be wondrous if you see more in shapes then most people do. A interesting secret.  Caisa M. Howerin replies: "That's possible, in this instance at least. The picture grew out of a very simple sketch, that I liked because of the unusual, triangular shape of her face and crown. I continued using triangles and diamond-shapes in her costume . And added foliage with pointed leaves on the trees in the background." | |

Still, very good... um, painting? I'm guessing it's at least partly digitally painted just because of the large smooth flat patches of color, but the edges are a little rough which gives it a sort of more organic feel. ...Don't know if that made any sense, but hey, good job, congrats on Mod's choice, eh? Caisa M. Howerin replies: "Thanks for your comment. Maybe Chinese only in my own imagination. Her costume at least makes me think of someone from the Far East. It is all digital, Illustrator 8, many layers and tiny pieces of "paint" added painstakingly over a period of several months. " | |
| 15 Jun 2004 | Randi | Loading... I absolutely adore your picture. The colors are beautiful, and work well. I commend you. The piece just gives off an emotion. touching. much love~ | |
| 15 Jun 2004 |  Alex 'Demonic Child' Kerner. | Loading... Hmm....It dosnt look like she is Chinese, but I love the pic. She has a scary goth look to her. Like she could be a princess by day and a killer scary chic o la by night. LOL. I like it though. her clothes are very nice. Dont look oriental, but they do look like she is a jester or something. I dunno. My whole theme of my house is chinese and I dont see this as being a chinese chic in chinese clothes....just my opinion! | |
| 16 Jun 2004 |  Anna Elissa | Loading... Agree with everyone here, she doesn't look like a Chinese woman. And she wears neither a cheongsam nor a Chinese royal dress. To me, the costume looks like an ancient Indonesian dress, whereas the crown looks like a Thai one. But yes, the style is very unique. I've never seen such pic, this is different. What medium? Caisa M. Howerin replies: "This girl in her fantasy costume reminded me of someone from the Far East, so a Chinese princess came to mind. Indonesian and Thai sounds more accurate. The medium is Illustrator 8. " | |
