Artist's Comments

I wanted to try out something like sumi-e. ^^ While drawing I was thinking about the legendary Prince Shôtoku. Nya, I don´t know how he looked like but if I read about him I imagine him like this. XD

It´s done with pencil, eraser and white chalk, the colour changed to cyan with computer. It took me something about an hour and the size is between A3 and A4.

The pic is dedicated to , an old friend of mine whom I miss very much! ;O;

Forgive me for being ignorant, but who is Prince Shotoku? Is he a character in a Legend?

I love how everything is disolving into the mists in the background, still leaving a trace of the mountians and trees.

Excellent job! ^_^

^_^ Shôtoku was one of the first Japanese Emperors, at least the first one who was recognised by the Chinese Emperor.

i love the color that you chose to use and the way that the picture seems to be sharp and detailed in the foreground but the background just fades out gently nice job

Very, very beautiful. His expression and face carries power and dignity and the abckrgound is so calming and peaceful...The wispy feel of it give me the feeling of morning and implies perhaps he has stayed up all night working.

I especially adore the absolutely lovely color composition~

^^ Danke... Im Moment fahre ich irgendwie total auf Sumi-e ab! XD Ich hab beschlossen, meine Zimmereinrichtung etwas asiatischer zu machen und will mir so ein Shoji-Paravent anschaffen! *O* Ich hab gestern mein Zimmer aufgeräumt und es sieht.... irgendwie leer aus. O.o Nun will ich mehrere A2-Blätter zusammenkleben und mit Tusche und Pinsel ein großes Sumi-e machen! XD

Ah ja, dein Päckchen steht bei mir immer noch da... ^^; Gomen, ich bin sowas von verplant... >_<

Btw, if you believe the legend then it´s possible that he stayed up all night working! XD It´s said that he was a genius. ^^;

Ah, good! I wanted to take up some kind of yellowish brown to let the picture look old but then chose cyan. I feared that the colour was too cold. ^^; But if I read you comment I feel relieved. :hug:
