Description I wasn't too happy with my other geisha entry. I felt it was too messy, after all it was a rush job. So i decided to clean it up a little. Besides, I made a mistake, Sayuri's eyes were described as blue-gray in Memoirs of a Geisha. Fixed it in this version.

Very nice. Nice choice of colors. It kinda reminds me of Patrick Nagel's work. I'm not sure if you're familiar with him. [link]

I'm actually reading that book right now. It's pretty good so far.

very beautiful and elegant. cherry blossom is coming.

I like the non shaded look, which creates (sort of) a colored woodcut look. O.K. not exactly but something like that

there is just the right amount of detail. And the hai looks fine.

I'm currently on Chapter 3 of this book!! Weird.

So far, it's a good book plus i'm crazy about anything Japanese.

overall nice illustration, great col and comp ...the only thing i can see wrong with this is that she looks too westernised (roundish eyes, big bone structure)

I looooove that book I was so pissed when I found out it wasn't true at the end!

Nice job here. I like how you've incorporated the cherry blossoms into the background. Nice bold shapes, the hair looks great. Like downtown said, it's got this nice, rounded cartoony feel to it.

If I may make ONE suggestion, it's with the pupils of the eyes... they're a little too small and narrow, which gives them a demonic/serpentine kind of appearance. I think rounded pupils would look more expressive and give her nicer personality I'd experiment, cos if they were too big she might look too cartoony.

Keep up the great work.

Thanks for the pointer on the eyes. I think I've fixed it but they might be a lil too big. Can't really tell cos I've gone crossed eyed myself looking into hers
