This is the first picture in a group of four that I did for my four great friends. This one is for Jenesa. The kanji at the top says 'Souzou', and it means 'Imagination'. I apologize for the cut-off on the side... As soon as I get my hands on a scanner again I'll fix that up. Prismacolours.

Woah, that is beautiful. I love the color and the concept, and everything about it! Wow, your friends sure are lucky to have a friend like you. *admired the piccy* *first comment stare*

:-) J.R. Moody replies: "Well.. kind of. They were presents for those friends, for Christmas.. Needless to say, they didn't get them until almost June. I'm the master of procrastination. Thank you for the comment!"

I love this reminds me of alice adn wonderland, the girl I love her hair is so pretty! The colors they contrast the dark moon and the bright and lively red the girl is wearing. Also, what does the chinese symbol mean?

:-) J.R. Moody replies: "Mm.. Alice and Wonderland is one of my favourite films/books.. EVER. I had an Alice and the Caterpillar picture using this same design ( elaborate, detailed center with a strange border ).. I made copies, gave them to friends, and lost the original. I'm still trying to find someone who will give me one of theirs back so I can copy it again and put it up here. In any case, I really appreciate the comment. Thank you!

Oh! And the symbol.. it means "Imagination" ( souzou, in Japanese )."

Such delicate eroticism--balanced with great design and technique...love the woman/flowers at the borders. Your work inspires and incites. Thanks-

:-) J.R. Moody replies: "No, thank you. It means a lot to me that I may have inspired someone."

I love all the detail put into this picture... As odd a comment as I know this is, I was enchanted by the work put into the floorboards, and I love the effect of the strand of pearls around the neck of the glass. It's absolutely beautiful! =D

:-) J.R. Moody replies: "Well, firstly, thank you for taking the time to comment, and for stopping by.

About the floorboards.. I'll let you in on an embarassing portion of the picture. A long, long time ago, when I actually watched anime, I had a poster of Misato from Neon Genesis Evangelion lying on her stomach, on a hardwood floor, with a glass of wine next to her ( and I think some keys ). I used to stare at that picture all the time, because I thought that it was strangly beautiful. Well, that ( obviously ) snuck into this picture. ^_^ Anyway, the embarassing part.. I was having trouble with the perspective on the floorboards. They look okay now, but before, they used to cover the whole picture. Out where the moon is, the lines all came together unevenly and looked like total crap. So the only actual reason that the moon is in the picture ( as much as I like there now ) is because I couldn't handle the floorboard perspective and took an easier route.

This is gorgeous. Your plant forms are just wonderful! This has a great combination of elements, with enough to keep your mind attentive without beng too busy. Awesome!
