Description
This is a lost legend:"1000 years ago, there was a girl. The end"
________________________________________
Just kidding !! I had a story, but my friend laughed at me when she heard it. So you are welcome to add a story for my picture if you like.
She is not actually as sad as she looks, here is a close up of her face [link] .
This is a actually a corner of a bigger poster…but in the bigger poster, she looks even punier, so I only coloured in the corner with her in it, hence this picture doesn’t look quite complete.
2007 edit: adjusted colours, the previous was too bright

so.... what's her story?
here's mine,
one thousand years ago (LOL!)
there was this maiden, a maiden with a divine beauty , her skin was so white and pure as fresh milk, her tall hair so soft, softer than silk of the wild raspberry cocoons( don't know where from I got this!).
She lived in a castle, far far away, by a great big sea. She used to gaze for long hours on sea tides, that carried the news of sailors and travellers of the seven seas..
Her heart was so pure, so full of love…she was so gentle and kind, she had a very sweet nature ... she never knew what hatred was, she never felt angry on anything with a sole..
Beauty, wisdom, wealth, she just had it all.. she had it all for except for one thing..
For she was cursed.. she wasn't allowed to be loved …
This is a story, of the maiden who was forbidden to be loved….
Okie, how's that?
LOL, I know its no good hehehe
So, what's ur story?

goddamn...the way u did the dress and the pillars..... it's extraordinary....truly seriously amazing
but
...i have to be honest
....the water, the sky and the blurriness & lack of clarity in the hair (coming out from behind the dress) compared with the dress (WOW!!) and pillar (OMG!!!) is just.... not good enough.... i dont mean to be supercritical or anything.....but its just like C'MON!!!
look at the details in that pillar....the cracks, the decorative features....look at that dress and the shading, those creases, the vibrancy and contrast in those colours ...comparing this with the aforementioned elements in this picture and damnit.... im angry!! you should be too!!!! PUT MORE INTO IT...if you cant do skies or water then practice or avoid it altogether, i mean u can replace them by doing what you're good at, like maybe more pillars behind the ones in the foreground...the water replaced by a similarly styled floor/ground.....ARGHHHHHH

HAHAHA!! thanx Z! I love your honesty. I thought you'd respond something like this
You can tell i got lazy at the end for the background. Sky and water is done by the pc effect...i didn't draw it...that's the thing with digital art and me, I tend to get lazy when I pc can do it for me. Maybe one day, when i feel like it, i'll redo the background, it was originally something else entirely.
I'll go traditional on my next one that way i can't do short cuts.

TRADITIONAL ALL THE WAY
you should take your time anyway...recreational art isnt about deadlines and shit...some ppl take yrs to finish a painting and still arent satisfied
