Description "Say hello to all the apples on the ground, they were once in your eyes, but you sneezed them out while sleeping..."
-A Perfect Circle, The Nurse Who Loved Me


I did this probably almost 2 months ago... but I'm loser and since I took the photo of it the same time I took my a-kon pictures, I forgot to think, "Hey! I need to upload that to deviantART!" (somehow.)

I was inspired by Audrey Kawasaki to paint on planks of wood, specifically girls-- she was going to be partially nude but you know how that flies with family around. -waves hand-

I also got that dress and a black & white pinstripe corset that I'm more than a little crazy about, even if I can't breathe/function at all when I wear it x_x

I guess I'm kind of okay with her... since halfway through I went through some huge emotional wreckage I kind of lost the will to make things pretty. :/ (i.e. that turquoise blur on the skirt...) I tried though! Lance was good at being like, "FGSFDS, WORK ON SOMETHING!!!"

So anyway, here she is. >_>; I still have more wood planks, so I'll try the media again later.

Media: Gouache on 5''x12'' Pine (gah tiny)

You still managed to make her very pretty. I like the way her breasts respond to gravity and the fabric... it just looks very delicate and realistic. Her hair is very lovely, too.

Sora-X-Riku [2007-07-11 15:08:28 +0000 UTC]

She's beautiful, I love how the shock of red hair contrasts so sharply with that lovely blue-green corset. she looks almost anguished, you caught the expression perfectally-well done! this reminds me of one of my favorite artists...unfortunately, I can't remember his name, but he does beautiful, beautiful art, laden with mythological creatures with the distinctive large, narrow and far-spaced eyes and sharp faces; one of my favorite styles. I don't see that you could find fault in this at all, with the exception that her chest seems a little lop-sided...I really envy your talent, you're going to go so far!

OOOHHH!!! How pretty. And on a plank too. She looks like she just woke up. The natual wood helps w/the pic. It looks like she's laying on a wooden floor.

I always have liked this. <3

The contrast of the Minty Green and red is pretty. All in all the style is very 'you'. :3

what I don't like about the turquoise is that your eye snaps to IT, rather than her face or anything else :/

Ehhhh, oh well.

I like the necklace and the skirt. I like the skirt with the blotch and the grays because it looks like shes been doing something even though she's just laying there.
