Artist's Comments

I dub this colouring style, "Colour-splash". XD
I know it has a name of its own already...
Colour-splashing is when you use a lot of water, and you simply allow the watercolours to blend at their own will.

It's fun, it's less stressful, and it's very honest.

Mandarin, because the colors reminded me of one.
Supposed to be a book cover.

I've lost it. Completely.

It's almost an abstract piece... I wonder how would it look in an image sequence *_*

Looks cool for a cover but I'm not sure about the font T_T

aah, im sorry, enlighten me.
What do you mean by image sequence ?

Also I meant to put chinese characters in place of the word, but got lazy of finding the characters, XD

Thank you for the critique :)

:heart: You're just a color master, aren't you? I've always been really fond of that blending method - of just letting water colors melt into one another. So I love this!

Like a graphic novel, or even a comicbook... your drawing has a heavy atmosphere. I don't know, I just imagined that character saying something, that's all :D

Your style is so awesome! I bet if I tried painting like this my colours would run together into one big ugly mess!! :noes: Your blending here is so brilliant that my eyes never get bored! I love your colour palette too :) What I'd love to see is a WIP of a piece!! :D

I think, therefore you are.

What can I say, woman? Jaw-dropping as usual.

Should make this as a sketchbook cover! Business, you know what I'm saying? xD
