Description

I'm not sure what I should say about this... it was a pretty personal picture, but by the 10th hour that I've worked on this whatever profound meaning I had in mind all went out the window (however, I do hate crying in public). Did this in PS7 and Painter 8. It took longer than 10 hours ;) As far as technique goes, I was going for more of the style that other Asian artists employ with their fantasy/character art; more focus on colour, lots of anal retentive details in the costume, atmospheric background etc. Hope you like.

The details are well worth the effort. Such a beautiful piece and a great idea. What would it be like if our tears actually did not react to gravity. Beautiful!

My daughter asks "is this a picture of the goose princess that wears a goose crown?" Don't ask me what she's taking about! As for me, I bow down at your temple of skill.....(cue Wayne's World type bowing)
