SciFi and Fantasy Art Dejah Thoris by Jedediah Dougherty


	An acrylic painting from 2005. This is a picture of Dejah Thoris, Princess of Mars, from the Barsoom series by Edgar Rice Burroughs. She is dressed in jewels, and leans on her trusty Martian hound. That string of beads was really tough to paint! But the rest of it was fun.

9 Jul 2005	Adorea	Loading... Excellent acrylic painting.. I've done some works with my acrylics but comparing to yours it's nothing.. It's fabulous!!!
9 Jul 2005	Panu Karjalainen	Loading... That's a really attractive princess there, and so Barsoomian to boot. I would have liked to see a bit more background, since I find the nature of Barsoom to be very compelling and very complementing of Dejah Thoris' complexion. Now that was comp, but anyway... let's see, yeah. A nice portrait with a nicely maniacal hound.
10 Jul 2005	Steph	Loading... yeeeeeeahhhhhh!!!!!!! its about time we get a REAL WOMAN in here!!! lol just kidding. very beautiful depiction, i cant say that ive read the books, but its still a beautiful painting. thick princess with a martian dog, who couldnt love it??? very nice job!
12 Jul 2005	Kimberly Platt	Loading... Beautiful work like always. I can't wait to see what you've done with my picture.^^
24 Jul 2005	Anonymous	Loading... Very sexy.
12 Sep 2005	Edward Newton	Loading... Thinking of the "doggy thing" beside Princess Dejah, I believe it is Woola the Calot. Thark warrior (and later chieftain) Tars Tarkas put Woola in charge of John Carter, and later Carter put him in charge of Princess Dejah Thoris. There's more to the story than that, but I believe this picture takes place after Carter has put Woola in charge of Dejah.

17 Oct 2006	Anonymous	Loading... It looks like a fat cave woman with a sick dog! Jedediah Dougherty replies: "Do you mean sick as in good, like the kids say nowadays? In which case, thanks!"
9 Dec 2006	A. Numinous	Loading... I don't know about this. Sure, as an interpretation of Dejah Thoris, it IS more original and interesting than the usual plasticky Playboy Playmate creature that seems to be the feminine ideal of the overwhelming majority of sf/fantasy art pros (or, if you prefer, hacks), and you're obviously no mean hand at painting, but the Princess of Helium never struck me as the stocky, "Venus of Willendorf" type, either. Which of course only means that we imagined her differently. Keep 'em coming. There's not enough ERB art in the 'Wood.
