Mmm...mooncakes. I had a blast eating them until I found out how fattening they were. Ah well. Anyhow, I really love the colors used in this. One of my favorite things about your art is your use of colors. They are always so vibrant, even if the picture is at night, such as this one. Also, they hold some feeling of traditional Chinese art. O_O;; I get the vibes.

wow, tah is such a cool effect. the blured. and really great colors. i really really like the characters above that he wrote with his finger, but i would like to see more of it. its too close to the edge for me. i might reposition it if it were me. but htat just me, and i cant draw so i should keep my moouth shut.

Ooh! I love the purple!! And I so want to learn more about that festival. I keep hearing about it but I know nothing about it. o.o

mayshing In reply to halflingrogue [2004-10-01 14:39:38 +0000 UTC]

hmm... it's basically accompanied with the legend of a woman who flew upto the moon, Moon is very important to Chinese culture, we based our calender on it... according to Chinese Calender, this is the Moon at its fullest during the year, and perhaps crops are reaped based on this timing.
That's why there is moon festival, people also use this time to remember their dead, by walking in the dark with some paper/wooden made lamp. We also eat and feast, some of us also eat a cake called "Moon Cake."

Ooh, cool! It sort of sounds like Hallowe'en (also called All Hallow's Eve, All Saints' Eve, Samhain, Shadowfest, etc. ). In many old traditions Hallowe'en is the third and final harvest festival, and it's a day of the dead where children dress up to scare off demons and then go around getting candy. And we have jack o' laterns. It's weird how some traditions are so similar across the globe. o.O

Moon Festival? Sounds like fun. But this is really pretty! The painting (I think) makes it look really pretty and picture-book like.

Hope you had fun at the Moon Festival.
