i've been wanting to get this picture out of my head for A YEAR now:!:

its done in watercolour and acrylic, and guess what im soo cheap soo i substitute the watercolour with acrylic..
the 5 ml professional grade watercolour tubes here in SG are about 6 $SGD while the 75 ml tube student grade acrylic is about 4 $SGD..gee what a RIPOFF right?:!: garrh!

I really like the expression on her face, and the way you have painted in the light, so it looks like a bewildered prisoner in a dungeon filled with flowers... nice work

It looks almost like a gothic take on Alice in Wonderland. Very nice.

I feel your pain. My painting classes for oils weren't the most money saving class in my education.

Hang in there.
