Artist's Comments

The Sacrificial Quarters, also called The Four Quarters. And you know how four quarters make a whole symbolic dollar. C:
This picture took a long-assed time. 29" across, 22" tall AKA biggest watercolour I've done thus far.

Anyway, they're all religious sacrifices save for the last panel. I'll let you guess what each entails. :bucktooth: Don't wonder why demons would be religious. They feel like it.

And don't be the 10th person to ask if they're all the same chick. They have different eyes, hair, and facial markings. :| Whatzefuck.

Also, this picture gave me hell because when I first drew the whole thing out it turned out to be on the wrong kind of paper, then the second time I got yellow paint splattered on it. So I'm happy to have it done now. :[

o____o Wowwwww. Watercolor?! It looks so good.

I wish you had a print account so that I could get this on my wall or something.

It would be -sooo- cool. o_o <3

I doubt it'd be bought, in any case.

:heart: THIS IS SO GORGEOUS. ;o; :heart: I totally love your watercolour stuff soooooo much. :heart: It's so pretty. <33 I love how each panel sorta focuses on one particular colour, and the concept is major cool :heart:

IT MAKES ME GLEE. c8

Zomg, you finally finished it...Cool. I've been meaning to figure out how to get better at watercolours meself, but the paper is so damn expensive. *totally does not work at an art store what-are-you-talking-about*

Pshaw, you could just put on a ninja outfit and steal some from the backroom in the art class. Or I could get it for you.

Wow Michelle. O_O I'm in awe, but I forgot how to do the little "jaw drop" emoticon thing, so I'll just do this:

=DDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDDD


This looks like, wow I don't know what to call it... I'd say proffesionally done, but in my book you are a pro... so it would be like calling your work average...
So you give me a word to call it and I'll call it that. :]


One weird thing that I noticed, in the first 3, they seem to be dying... but in the last one, (sorry I forgot her name :( ) it doesn't look like she's dying at all. I guess that's where the awakening thing comes from... unless she dies by like, being woken up so much that she gets no sleep and just dies from exaustion. Xp kidding, kidding.

Also, the first two have neck marking, and I can't tell on the last one because it looks like she's being hanged, only... the wrong way kinda.

Oh poopums, I just typed a huge comment, sorry Michelle for making you have to read all of my ramblings!
I just have 2 questions, is it the same chick and why would demons be religious?

Aret isn't depicted as dying, you're right. :) It's okay, though, I actually love long comments as opposed to brief generic ones.

And for your two questions you get a sack full of cat farts. ]:< :heart:

Thank you though!

YESS YES YES YES YES YES YES YES IT'S FINISHEDDDD


The only two things that bug me about this are-
1. Sound carries better in water than in air(and I know I've already pointed this out to you and I STILL DON'T CARE, it bothers me anyway but shshh)
2. The picture quality is a leetle fuzzy and doesn't show the full amazingness of this painting.


Srsly, you put my kimono-wearing praying mantis to shame.

:hump:
1. YES SHUT UP. :[
2. I know, tres disappointing, unfortunately I don't have a giant scanner so I had to use my sister's camera.

Butbutbut. Your kimono-wearing praying mantis cannot compare to anything else. I mean for god's sake it's a praying mantis. IN A KIMONO (And not a raincoat). Shit son. It makes me...
PONDER. Hmmyesss.
