yeah, this is that HARUKA wallpaper's musume-bun. LOL
at first i wanted the name of the wall to be 'suiren geisha' meaning suiren = lotus ;p
but changed my mind, even tho this HARUMI wall doesn't look like my HARUKA geisha vector

okiee,, i shouldn't be submitting something as early as this but i can't wait and especially when i saw 'ol flyin-chan submitted another wall : P

teh wallpaper's story ( corrny~~ xP ) :

the girl in the wall is harumi which is haruka's musume-bun ( apprentice geisha ), when an oneesan ( geisha mentor ) hires another maiko to be her musume-bun they usually give them a new name that is loosely based on her oneesan's name. ex: haruka ( spring flower ), harumi ( spring beauty ) *i got this from a site LOLOLOL*

yeah i'm infatuated with geisha and their culture, and i'm even doing a project about them at school. so you will probably see more geisha walls in the near future. in this one i tried to keep it simple, i didn't use reference on the geisha herself so it's kind of 100% handmade so sorry if it's crappy or anything like that

and the water lilies on the back is yes, you guessed it! from my old among the lilies wallpaper. i used a reference on her japanese hair comb so it has some little details xP

i tried to make this as original as possible and hope this will do ne? your comments make me smile! >D

    It's beautiful. The lotuses are so delicate, and the use of white lines so striking.

  19. soujiokita Apr 29, 2006

    That's really beautiful. The girl looks pretty too. I also like how the background is nice and simple. Great work! :) +fav

  20. Phill Apr 29, 2006

    lovely XD *panic* well , although she doesn't look like geisha at all , she looks more likely a normal traditional Japanese girl . However , this is a really love piece from you Shixon , keep up great work ^^

  21. enchantressinthedark Apr 29, 2006

    And original vector? OMG This is really nice! ^_^ You have great skills Shix-chan! ^_^ And you did great for this, as usual! XD Keep it up!

  22. chichiri1907 Apr 29, 2006

    O ShiXon, u make me so happy whenever I see your beatiful original walls.
    Their jst so beatiful and enchanting and i love that this one somehow has a ghostly feel to it >.<
    What more can I say except that I simply adore ur styles :)

  23. Zefie Apr 29, 2006

    very beautiful vector again ^_^ and nice geisha theme again too ! composition is really pretty, like the lotus flowers on the background and character in the middle of it. lotus flowers with green background also give nicely brightness to otherwise quite light coloured wallie. like the dim little pink parts next to eyelid as the red colouring of her lips, they bring nicely warm to her pale skin. overall great work, lines are clean and colouring is well done :D thank you for sharing !

  24. animefairy Apr 30, 2006

    Wow...this wall is very new and very creative! It's not bad at all! I love the colors and the designs you added. It looks like old, traditional Japanese geishas! The girl looks sweet and innocent! Keep it up, ShiXon! ^_^
