Description
This piece is done for a gallery that I have gotten into called Blue Moon [link] . The wonderful owner and curator Carol Brewer (after a 3 hour interview) enjoyed my work and asked for me to come up with something to be shown by March 1st. Think it was adrenaline or something but I managed to get this done in 1 day, working off and on from 8 this morning to about 9:30 this evening. My eyes feel as if they are about to pop out and dangle from their sockets but I am very happy with the end result. I just wish that the scanner was able to pick up all of the details. So all I have to do now is get it matted and framed ^.^NOTE: In respect for Carol and Blue Moon, I will not have this avaliable as a print while it is being shown at the gallery.
Original painting: watercolors on watercolor paper ( 9 x 12 inches)
Inspiration: Guan Yin, Chinese bodhisattva of compassion
Reference Used:
Bronze statue of Guan Yin [link] by esee

This is beautiful, like all of your works. I'd love to have even a fraction of the skill you possess some day.
And yay for getting into Blue Moon! I'm so happy for you!

@__@ can't believe I was able to get it done in 1 day... of course I was so burnt out afterwards that I slept hard

One day? X_x I wouldn't be able to do that. After too long I'd be so burnt out I'd stray away from it for a "short break", and then most likely space it the rest of the day. Lol.
