	An Art Nouveau picture featuring the princess from an old story idea of mine... I dunno where that's going but I think she's flying.

21 Aug 2003	Lindzi Smith	Loading... No comments? Ahhh! bounces round in some kind of frantic first comment dance sorry, im not insane, i just really like your art and this one especially. I know it sounds strange, but i really like the fact the paper is landscape. I love the way the colours are used too! Julianne Dodds replies: "Everyone always likes the anime-style work best... I don't, but everyone else seems to..."
12 Mar 2004	Anon & Anon & Ever & Anon	Loading... Not everybody! I think you're best when you explore mythological realism. Anime, unless it's top-notch, is (in Byron's vivid if inappropriate expression) frigging the imagination. But in your more realistic but mythic work I get the feeling you're really exploring, you're getting someplace worth getting to, especially in the best stuff where you let your imagination really take the bit between its teeth. I'm not sure I could say it much better than that, I'm afraid. Julianne Dodds replies: "I agree with you. I don't really like the anime style anymore, but I was stuck in that rut for a while when I was about 12. I learned a lot from it, but for me anime was basically a dead end."

23 Apr 2008	Derek C. Smith	Loading... I agree with you about the anime not leading places, as you could tell from my own gallery, I haven’t contributed in like four years... I haven’t been able to develop it past what I had there that you looked at. THAT SAID, I do enjoy doing it and I’m glad to see that you were able to "grow" out of it into more mature types of art-- that to me gives me hope. This girl is lovely and I thought I wanted to comment that, even though she may be anime, she’s still some great artwork.
