I have never been a friend of much words for the art that I've done in the past since most of it basically contained of practices which had no great meaning anyways.
Knowing that my technique is not perfect, there are certain things I just can't do. I wouldn't be able to paint perfect hands even if my life relied on it, but I also know that this is not aiming to be one of those perfect rendered elves in a forest paintings anways.
It is one of my few paintings which actually delivers a message regarding what is going on right now with China, and I hope that you guys know more about China than just that they use to take popular artists' work to spread them on their sites without asking, because their population seems not to be allowed to browse websites like DeviantART, for instance.
This should make us think.
Try to wonder why this woman so proudly inherits the world, while she also carries the olympian flame in a lantern that would not allow it to be touched by any wind... I really wonder if I will discover this painting on on of my favorite chinese art sites two days after I have published it. I bet they hate me now. :P
Here is a closeup of the head by the way, as it was still in work: http://azurelle.deviantart.com/art/China-Girl-WIP-82073119
Have a nice day!
PS: People's reactions to that painting were pretty different. While anime and manga freaks basically loved it, the few chinese people who commented it hated me for making such a painting...
