Description
She asked "do you remember spring, with the daisies and dewdrops and the dreams we danced in the air?"I replied, "how could I forget?"
But I had forgotten.
At Anime Expo, there was a Copic marker workshop which *mree and I attended. At the start, they gave us all a sheet of paper and a copic multiliner pen, but no pencil! =OOO Those familiar with my drawing style will note that I regard myself as an absolutely awful sketcher, and need to draw/erase/refine/erase/draw a line many many times before I'm satisfied with it.
But.... I wanted to doodle something, so I picked up the copic pen and started drawing. And this is the result. It's a very different feeling to draw on blank paper knowing you can't erase or change a line once it's been put down.
There are a couple mistakes here and there, but I scanned it in and spent about 30 minutes adding a few effects in Photoshop. No Copic markers were used in the process... Guess even after attending the workshop, I still have no idea how to use a Copic... XD

Beautiful. 
I LOVE the flower behind the face, and the color scheme works so well with the title, as well as the photoshop effects.

Nah, your site still has perfectly good art on it. It just happens to be some of your older stuff.

Yes, but older stuff inevitaly means shameful stuff. I think that's the way it always will be.... ^^ What book did you say this was?

Amazing job, Joulee!

Thank you! ^__^ You're too kind... I love Alphonse Mucha's works, but the thick outlines were also done partly to help me cover up some of my outlining mistakes... ^^

I try to vary my art between "cute" and "morbid/sad" ^___^ Guess which phase I'm in right now.
Soon, I'll put up a "darker" picture ^^
