Description
For school, the topic was book cover. I chose Memoirs of a Geisha by Arthur Golden.I was halfway through the first painting when the file got corrupted and everything was lost, somehow from that frustration I went turbo and redid this new one in about a day.
Anyway the format sorta works as a wallpaper too, so enjoy!

WILL YOU MARRY ME!? Seriously, your stuff is so amazingly awesome, it makes me want to cry with excitement. The detail is incredible-! And does it take long for you to come up with such a balanced and perfect composition or does it just fling right into your mind as you're drawing? AMAZING.
I love you. ;-;

That sucks that the original got corrupted, but to be able to do this on one day, that's awesome.
I hadn't read the book (I watched the movie), but I can totally see this as a book cover. ^^

I haven't gotten around to reading the book, but this would make an excellent book jacket... I don't want to think the movie has swayed my opinion of character attitudes, but maybe a soft pink or blue would have been more suitable for Chiyo/Sayuri, whereas bright red is more Hatsumomo because she is threatening...
But either way, this is beautiful and eye-catching, and would be if it were softer. Keep it up!

Absolutely amazing. I'm in awe at how beautiful this piece is. So did you scan in a red watercolour painting as a base and then put the other images on digitally?
Gah, I'm so shocked by this that I can't find anything to say besides it's ridiculously good! xD

Man, if I ever come across a book with such a breath-taking cover, I may have to eat noodles for the rest of my life but I don't care, I'll buy it. It'll be MINE! *__*v
