"Painted Lady" by Melissa D. Saunders

SciFi/Fantasy Picture 11 out of 19 by Melissa D. Saunders. ←Previous - Next→

Item censored due to its Parental Rating level (#4 of 4), as set by the artist...


	I decided to give this faerie an asian look and her wings are based on the Painted Lady butterfly. The tattoos on the woman are kanji for Painted Lady.

1 Jan 2008	Natalie Beth Myers	Loading... i ADORE the wings...like usual. they are just...just... just...SOMEONE GIVE ME A NEW WORD TO USE! Melissa D. Saunders replies: "Amazing? lol "
11 Dec 2009	Kurt Le Courtois	Loading... Nice integration of the wings into the back. I like how you painted her face and painted calligraphy onto her side. I recognize the lower symbol as "woman". I’m guessing the rest above means "painted"?
