Done in artists coloured pencils, this is just a personification of April scattering flowers and seeds. She is wearing her motley for All Fools day. :)
(Updated 25 Oct 2006) This painting was sold earlier this year, so I supose that makes me a semi proffessional? :D

I really love the idea behind this picture...the character design is lovely and original. The pose and layout are well done and the costume is great. Your pencil-work is very smooth and clean. Great pic! *smiles*

:-) Steph Steph Salt replies: "Thank you Wendy *hugs* 2 It's all just going to my head. But then again I've had one perv looking only at pictures showing bare breasts and calling me a perv? Don't it take all sorts? Kind of brings me back to earth with a bump 1 LOL!"

Wow. This is fantastic!! 17) It looks as if she was riding on the rising sun.... The seeding of plants and flowers, that's indeed something happy! Her costume is an extravagant idea that fits.

:-) Steph Steph Salt replies: "Thank you Jan, she is suposed to be the fool from Aprils all fools day and the spirit of spring and rebirth. She is riding a large floating egg, not the sun 1 Thank you for your lovely comment."
