Description

Okay, so I got this Madame Butterfly DVD recently that I really love, and I really wanted to do a self portrait from some of the kimono modeling photos I have in my other gallery. Well, this is what came of that.

Yes, there is blood in the drawing. No, this drawing isn't meant to be emo or vampiric or anything like that. It's just an illustration of the Madame Butterfly story.

Media: Chalk pastel for the skin and kimono, red gouache for all the red stuff, India ink for the hair, gold and silver pens for the butterflies and clouds, and some pencil crayons for atmosphere.

Prints of this piece are up for sale in my Etsy shop: [link]
