Artist's Comments

If you've been wondering where I've been, the entire time I've been gone I was working on the singular image above.

Influenced by Canepa and European comic styles, this is of course Avvocotessa of the Orchard, goddess of pagan religions and exotic cultures.
And contestant of Miss SDL 2009. Since she apparently didn't learn her lesson from last year.

The headdress is referenced. If you want it, google 'gypsy'.
I'm beginning to dress Avvocotessa to be more befitting of her title. Her above costume is influenced from the Romani gypsy fashions.

all art belongs to me. Forever. the same about of time it took to create. Forever.

wow excellent piece :) I disagree with oceangranny03 in the "solid lines", I mean there are none in real life. But the use of or the not use of is a matter of opion, so is one opion better then other?

I really like the colouring style used on this picture. but composition-wise, it feels lacking and doesn't really show much.

fitting much more in would make it too busy for a portrait.
