Artist's Comments
My entry for *frosks tea contest! It's such a nice theme for a contest I couldn't resist
 I had this idea to make a little postcard in an art nouveau style, since tea reminds me of art nouveau  just me then. It was hard to colour this since I had no idea what I was doing, in the end I just went with lots of textures to add some depth  To be honest the whole thing was just blind experimentation after I finished the lineart, no plan whatsoever. I wasn't sure about the washed out colours, but I hardly ever do anything soft & muted so I sort of like how it's turned out. Not much else to say, except she's meant to be blowing the steam away (that's why she's making that funy face  )All the writing & the paper tex in the background are from =resurgere Crit appreciated but be kind Fineliner on paper, Painter 9 + Photoshop 7   |

opinions are like asses, everyone's got one and mine's better than yours
The tea cups in the border were a little bit of a last minute thing, gawd am I glad I added them they make it look much nicer I think ^^ & the tea colours, she was actually a really dark brown with really orange background & hair, until I was playing around with textures & set one of them to a different layering mode & it made everything this nice pinkish shade...probably the happiest accident I've ever had cos I love the colours on this now
& you is GEEENIUS for the sinister lady thing! I hadn't even noticed but it's wonderful! She DOES look like a witchy, & with the magic like smoke & how you can't see her eyes...wow you're super clever. You saw that & I didn't & I drew the lady! I likes it much more now she's a bit scary
You comment made my day & made me like the pic a lot more, cos you're the best.
Mega famile love, millions
