These two look so peaceful… Obviously contemplating which colour shirt is best. It’s so hard to decide that they have to meditate together to find out!!!! Pity we can’t do a stripe shirt to match the bg of the original painting ;D
yea, i agree with GG! if only we have stripe tshirts.. hehe.. this looks great, Karin! with the background, we can choose a black tee and the design will still stands out! you’re so smart!! =D i love it on black and teal.. beautiful!
hi Fa, yep that would be groovy! thanx so much…i couldn’t make it look good…until i discovered this idea with the circle/gradient…and then i was so happy to upload it :D
Hey, Karin, very sweet designs, and I really want to tell you this.
For many chinese people (yes, I am chinese), very often the western representations of chinese culture/characters are not very well accepted (a bit like fortune cookies, they are only western-perceived chinese food, most chinese don’t eat them, LOL). But your asian/chinese characters are really really adorable, they totally change what I thought!
I would like to thank you. deeply from my heart MissKoo… what you say means a great deal to me indeed and I am very touched by it.
I have the greatest affection for asian children and love to learn of other cultures outside of my own. It was with this in mind that I began to paint this theme. After my own children began to learn martial arts, I painted an asian themed card to thank the sensai (teacher) and once I started on these little figures I gained more and more affection for them….i began to research more and more about asia and found myself increasingly absorbed, so that these works of art sprung forth, without much further thought….they had taken form within me, and decided they would come to life….so in some ways, it wasn’t really my decision to paint them, i think they insisted they were coming to life, with or without me!!!! thank you very much MissKoo…a very well timed compliment indeed!!! :D
Yeah… I’m good. Will BM you tomorrow ~ finally got out to the Botanic Gardens today and took HEAPS of pics!!!!! Next week I probably won’t be on here as much cos it’s Andy’s b’day and we’re going to be out and about 4 days out of 5… grrrrrr :-(
oh, good, great, excellent even!! so happy…so excited to see your new images uploaded Karen… can’t wait..:D Happy Berfday to Andy btw :D Have fun at all the celebrations…you guys must be v. popular!!!
