Hey there thv73! Thank you kindly sir :)

Thanks so much Mimi – I’m honoured by such flattery coming from you :)

Thanks so much Gerrard :)

Thanks Mukesh – (love your photos btw ;) )
Do you think so? I’ll look into that; I need a sale….

Many thanks Dennis – most kind :)

Many thanks Trdib :)
In reality (and perhaps in a photograph), yes, there would be shadows on the skin – and her hair also…. As this is a design / illustration, I opted not to use shadows here as they would have appeared too harsh for the overall linear feel of the image.
By way of reference: I see from your goldfish TShirt design you have a strong ‘window’ reflection on the fish bowl, which would suggest in reality that there would be shadows & highlights on the fish also (cartoon or not) from that angle, yet as the designer, you chose to disregard such superfluous details as they’d only serve to distract ones attention away from the main visual message of your design….
Hope that makes some sense :)

Hi Anita, many thanks for your comment, and also for favouriting my painting :)

Thanks Kelly – kind of you :)

Thanks, SNik :)
Funny you should mention that, I was just putting forward my thoughts on creative use of white space on another site (in relation to the insignificance of detail within a design), so I appreciate your comment on this a lot :)

Thanks atong ;) Yes, it is (there were a few of these in this style)... thanks so much :)

Hi Holly – yes… I see what you mean (I didn’t know the name, but remember that Duran x2 album cover from back then vaguely…..Thank you :)

Thanks so much Alexander – that’s very kind of you :)
