Sayuri's gazeby ~HollyBell

Digital Art / Paintings & Airbrushing / People / Portraits

This is my first time completing a painting that I have started from scratch on the computer

No sketch, no lineart, nothing, I'm really happy ! It turned out quite nice I think.

It was inspired by a novel I read some time ago (in which the main character was a beautiful asian woman with eyes like water and who was named Sayuri) and by the awesomeness that is

's painting/tutorial "Hanagumori" (it's featured in her journal). You sure learn many things looking at the master at work

I've just finished the book Memoirs of a Geisha and an musing about whether to watch the movie or not, you protrayed Sayuri beautifully, great work!

*TsukiTheRipper Apr 6, 2012

wonderful! There's only a Sayuri with "eyes full of water" that I can think about, and I think you did a great job representing her

~Jolena Mar 29, 2012

Wow, this is so very beautiful. Her eyes are haunting!

I just read the book- Memoirs of a Geisha just now, I've always loved to the movie also but books are so much better- you did wonderfully!
