Description OK, i didn't make that background pattern, its a piece of scrapbooking paper. My teahcer advise di do this to that image of gypsy i painted ages ago. So i bought a patterned piece of papr and a craft knife and painstakingly cut out gypsy and then stuck her on the paper. It took me a while to find the right paper to suit the image, but i really like how it works. Its a sort of modern twist. My teacher had suggested an asian pattern paper, like those really intricate gold print ones... but ide have to go to cabbramatta to get some o that and there aint NO way i'm goin there, cause its basically a foreign country, i need a passport or something >.<
Anyway, this paper suits her better. Not too overpoweringly detailed, but far from plain, and the colour scheme offsets nicely, and even better, the pattern was called Harlequin... and the character is Gypsy... so its kinda carnival related and well... ima make it my new desktop image

Gypsy shmine you no steally bad die.
OMG does this count as a ready-made artwork now o.O??? Nooooo im becoming a fucking pretentious synthetic artist D8

lawl what? right paper? i use the wrong paper lawl, i use good ol' cheap laser printing paper. It serves my purposes well enough i spose... and i pass a foreign country to get it from office works... i pass the suburb of Canley Vale, which is pretty much vietnamese soil now... maybe not officially but

Nice choice of paper Death, it suits Gypsy very well.
The painting style you have is very beautiful to look at, you put in many details that bring out the wonderful characteristics of a character. -Hugs Gypsy- Love love love love love!!!
I don't think it is cheating, you went though all the trouble to cut the blasted paper, I think you have earned a pineapple! -Hands you a pineapple-

This is beautiful! Your paper choice was great, matching very well!
WOW- Perfect timing, "Crystal Ball" by Keane came on, and seems to convey her mood perfectly.
Your not cheating, don't worry. D:
