Artist's Comments

(2008, Prismacolor pencil on sketch paper)

Ah...it feels good to finally upload something. I haven't uploaded anything since this past February, and that's way too long.

Furthermore, it's something other than a mermaid or a fish. I've developed a fascination for Japanese street fashion, particularly what is known as decora. "Let's see how many colors and cute thingies I can wear all at once.", seems to be the motto here.

I love her little smiley star! ^_^

Decora is so awesome~~~ I have a pal that wears that....fairly consistently, and it's so much fun to just look her over and see all the cute things that she has on at any given time...Glad to see new work from you! Hope you are well!

Yes, it is a fun style...I don't think I'd be able to pull it off, but it's still fun to spot someone who can. Hopefully, I won't go that long again without drawing something. ;)

This is different, but still has your signature style!
Lovely vivid colors, and beautiful faces :D
Hmm, I've never heard of this fashion before...learn new things everyday! You've done a good job of adding all these knick-knacks and colors without overloading the viewer!
:highfive:

Thank you! Are you familiar with Harajuku? It's a district in Tokyo where the young and hip gather every Sunday to show off all sorts of funky fashions, decora being one of them. They wear a lot of cute accessories, like Hello Kitty and such, and all sorts of bright colors, especially pink. Here, I've put my own spin on it. All those details would be difficult to do in Prismacolor pencils, lol! I'm thinking about doing something like this again, but a full figure.

No, not at all! This is my first experience with Harajuku and I must say, you make it look pretty cute!
Aw, I don't worry about your ability to do things with prismacolor. You work magic with them ;)
Oh! A full-figure-not-a-mermaid? That's new and exciting! Woot!
*holds breath*
