This is a wall done with the woman from Uemura Shoen's "Rokujo" (which is supposed to be the flames of desire). This piece is at the National Art Museum in Tokyo, and I found it to be one of the most beautiful paintings I have seen from that part of the world.

I do not know whether I did justice to this art in my wall, but all elements are taken from other asian art, with minimal effects and a fair amount of touchup. Hope you all like it as much as I like this painting.

*Adds to Favs*

:) I like that style of image, goes direct to my favorites :nya:

wow...fascinating. i like how you captured the 'asianess' of the art. btw, how did you add the japanese writing? is it a font style or an image layer? deserves my fav.

Holy shamolies you guys. I just posted this one and I'm getting a whole bunch of response to it within about TWO minutes! He he...that's awesome!

Thanks to all of you. The kanji is an image layer, which was a scan of a scroll out of another art book I have :P.

The pale yellow is so traditional inasian painting : loving it thanks for preserving the culture : )

just awesome THE BEST WALL IN general wallpaper : )
thanks x 10000

This is a really great wall, it captures the traditional look & style of asian art very well. Easily one of my favorites.

I have to say you did it justice, because I somehow feel you really captured the picture within your background. Really traditionnal and elegant look, I hope to see more like this one :D !

Beautiful... it's a lot "strange" but the effects are all wonderful!!! Great work :)

>.> Awesome... *favorites list* XD; It looks great.. The way you put all of it together is amazing. Nicely done.

Beautiful, I thought is was a drawing at first...Hard to tell that the woman came from a painting....you blended it all very nicely, a great realisation.

XD Yay, thanks to all of your support, Rokujo is the featured General Wall for today (12.01.04)!!! Thank you so much everyone. I am honored XD

Wow... it's... wow. At first glance, I thought it was a scan since it blends together so well, but after downloading the larger version, I got the full effect. Sugoi! :)

Very good!

Congratulations ^^
This work are very impressive, and goes direct to my desktop. I like that, now at the end of day ... ak.a... nightfall smiley


Anyway,,, good work.-
