I think she is a priestess of some kind. It was really a pencil scetch for which I needed a lot of confidence to start colouring it. I'm sort of satisfied, mostly with the lightfall of the candles. Just wish I had used proper paper.

She has a typical meditating pose. Ever tried meditation? Mm, that is fun... Although, prosaically speaking, quite a waste of time. Nice pencils, but I'm wondering - what type of paper did you use? Just curious. Most artists I know always doodle their best art on lined paper and napkins, and then get really frustrated... lol.

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "This was printer paper (real thin and white) I caryy it around in my swimming bag and it get's squished most of the time, but it's better than lined paper or napkins (although any paper is good when I'm in need!)"

I love it.. it reminds me of a druid (good one) and a druidess i guess because shes a girl i like her clothes.. and if you were to ever add more to it id suggest like a smoky background it'd be cool!

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "No, no more additions, this one is going to stay unfinished till the end of it's days! But Am glad you like the colouring, it took quite some time!"

Good job on the lighting, and the vibrant colours.

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "Thanks! That was my aim, personally am quite glad with the colours as well!"

again very beautiful! Wonderful choice of colors!

:-) Meike de Nooy replies: "Thanks.. This is one of those not finished ones, and I could still shoot myself for using printer paper (that's not good for colouring on!) But Me's glad you like 2 *beams*"
