Description I really struggled with this one, i changed her outfit and background about 10 times - it took alot of paint, i'm suprised the paper didn't fall apart!
~ Still not completely happy with it, didn't know whether to post it or not but i worked so hard on it and i thought maybe someone else might see some good in it
~ This is a continuation of my whisperer series of children raised by non-cliche animals so this time we have a girl raised by moths - lol impossible i know ^ ^

*As always my scanner has failed to pick up on alot of the detail + colour *sigh* painted in my usual combo of watercolour and acrylic

Llama is nothing, but a way to discover new deviants [and to get a cute animal badge on your DA page ], I'm glad it guided me to this picture. And it really has some kind of Amano scent, I guess. ((o_\\)

Well thankyou! Its weird that it looks Amano-ish cos I had no intention of it doing so but I do love Amano's work, so its a huge compliment, thankyou!

I believe you wasn't thinking it would look-a-like when you were drawing it, but I know just how it happens, when you're under impression

I dont know if I was influenced, I hadn't thought about Amano for quite a long time or looked at his artwork, i think its probably a coincedence because he has done a famous painting with butterflies/moths in it which i think is why this piece reminds people of his but who knows we are all influenced by everything we see so I could be subconciously influenced without realising it hehe o_0

Absolutely. Even the style, we work in is a combination of the styles and patterns we saw/liked. We don't realise it, though. Being a fan of someone's artworks - mean to adore em, and things we adore are condemned to be repeated in our own works. I hope I've told it clear enough to understand, cuz' I'm not really good in speaking with words, but pictures.. :\

I see a lot of good. I like this a lot... it has a touch of Amano to it. And I love moths.
