Artist's Comments

Had I not known
that I was dead
already
I would have mourned
my loss of life.

spoken by Ota Doken in 1486, just after he was stabbed in his bathtub

This is for silentkitty's contest. The character is Clia Lurien, a nutcase who killed a bunch of people and got herself executed. I tried to make her as close to SilentKitty's discription as I could, but just to show my increadible originality, I added a hat :P.

In most pictures of her she is serious, rather scary, and looks like she hates everything, thus the poem above would have been very suitable.. Mine didn't want to turn out that way. So prehaps, this poem is better?

Till now I thought
that death befell
the untalented alone.
If those with talent, too, must die
surely they make a better manure?

Morikawa Kyoriku

:D I just had to include that poem, it was so great. Poem references from [link] .

Hope everyone likes it!

I love the detail on the face... her chest seems a little long, but that's probably just me. Bravo :thumbsup:!

Her name was just a broken sound / A stutter step you hear when you're falling down

She looks... Beautiful. Deadly nightshade beautiful. 'Evil' beautiful. The eyes especially... They're such a lovely, toxic shade of red compared to the gothy green of the background. I like the way this green adds to the picture as well- it's a dark green, a filthy green, a misty green of perverted nature. Could be a tad more detailed, though- that might not actually go with your style here, but the frills seem oddly clear compared to everything else's mistiness.

I like hats. :( I want a hat too.

When I'm good, I'm very, very good.

When I'm bad, I'm even better.
