Artist's Comments

A pure experimentation in color. The lines were pencil and -NOT- digitally inked. That's just graphite.

I played with new ways to do a bit of color, as well as to how color can be applied in Elements to pencil lines.

There are both good n' bad things to the image. It's also a 'decent' image of Sutra, since I had been requested to get some refs up of her.

Original sketch done in Seminar... Time about 30 minutes or so. Coloring: Few hours

'Tis amazing!
:+favlove: I always really liked your art; It's a very good ref for her color. I love her face and expression! You're so good at expressions...and the butterflies really set off the image. The background really looks nice. :)

With the love of a spirit, and the friendship of an angel
I am able to fight on, and thankful for such a gift...

Jenna's tails (this character's twin) has tails that are organized more in a lump in assorted lengths.. For Sutra.. went with a 'fan' approach :}

Glad people want to see it ^_^
Admittedly bout screamed several different times. Colorin' straight over pencil lines is -frustrating- as hell. C_c
