Description

For ~SineSquared. I've known you since 2005, when I first found Two Moons. We've both grown as artists and people; you've gone to Japan, I've gone to college. You've been an inspiration to me for a long time.

I hope you like this.

This is my half of a trade Jenshin proposed... a while ago: to trade, not characters, but signature things from each other's styles. The purple and yellow color scheme, the fishy parts, and the roboticness are what I took from Jenshin's art. The flowey everything and the Art Nouveau styling were my elements.

Her half of the trade:


I really hope this isn't too heavily 'me'... I got a little carried away, haha. The pencils took months (I wanted to get them perfect, and then those cables....) and the painting took a week, minus two days and change scattered throughout to give my wrist time to recuperate (those cables!). I am so happy with this, and I hope Jenshin is, too <3.

Watercolor on my lovely 140lb Arches coldpress block.

This is really tripy looking! Wow it's hard to pinpoint what I'm looking at, it so organic in it's composition! Love the fish theme to it! it's a fantastic art piece with wonderful designs in it. I really loved reading your motivation in this trade, how wonderful artists working together like that!
