Artist's Comments
I am not sure if I did her kimono correctly, but a friend of mine suggested that she should be called The Bride due to the all-white. I purposely (sp?) folded her kimono with the right over left to show that she is dead. I really like Dia De Los Muertos tattoo designs, so I took a little of that influence for the flowers growing out of her body, but I didn't want to go too intricate with it. I was afraid it would be too busy.
I am still practicing on the Japanese style black cloud background style, but overall, I kinda like this design. Not too happy with the fog/smoke at the bottom, though. I needed something for her to lean on so that her skeleton would stay upright in all those layers, so I took a little bit from Inuyasha and made her pinned to the tree with the sword...only, obviously, she died. Let me know what you think, please!!! |

The pins in her hair and the flowing cloth gives it a certain realism. I like the sword idea... and the details on the sword. She looks like she died by an angry lover who wanted her to suffer dearly.
As I continue to look at it. There is obviously a very sad story behind the picture. Someone should ask to write a story to go along with this pic.
Nice job.
