Description

This work used as the cover of the April Corel Painter Official Magazine.You can see it here :
http://www.ljplus.ru/img3/s/o/sokkolova/COR_310x414.jpg

One autumn I travelled to Japan.
The unique culture, art and tradition of this wonderful country have rendered a lasting impression on me.
Japan has amazed me with its brightness. Tokyo surprised by abundance of beautiful, extravagantly glamour dressed girls.
Here is my work which would blend two cultures Japanese and my own, European.
I painted it during the 10 days, using Painter IX.
No photo ref for face and hand.
I`ve used my own kimono as an example for the fabric.

PS/ Thank`s to all, who gave me vote to elite!
I love you, dear friends :)

Wow, that is beautiful. The only thing that bugs me is that shadow above her head. I guess it is a shadow because I dont think her hair goes up that high. Just looks a bit funky. Everything else is just awesome. Her hand is amazing and the colors you used on the clothing fan and hair piece are just brilliant. Just fix that head shadow :)

I was in a Japanese play once where the character I played was named Chio-Chio San! I was only 5 years old, but I had the red silk kimono and fan and everything -- you do it justice, I love this. ;)

i love every image on your website and this one is no exception
weak points here for me are : the decoration in the dress looks pasted
the dress is so amazingly detailed that maybe the skin texture should have been a bit more detailed too :)
