Though the personality of Medusa is fierce, you made the opposite by giving her a light hearted atmosphere. SO cute

Your prob right, and all the females where super jealous like they normally are and made mean rumors about her turning you into stone so their boyfriends would stay away from her. Poor Medusa, lol , gorgeous pic though, amazing job. Love how she is holding a cute little mouse and one of her snakes looks like he is ready to eat it,

I really like this...but...
The colors. You are so fearless. And went in a totally different direction than I probably would have. When I think of Medusa, I think of a sexy, evil, woman who has been scorned. This seems very...fluffy and pretty. Looks great, but I'm curious what would happen if you changed the colors?

CQcat In reply to secrets-can-kill06 [2010-06-04 01:30:32 +0000 UTC]

Thank you! I know this version is very different than all the other medusa out there. But it's mythology, right? So nobody knows exactly what medusa is like! I am trying to portrait her soft spot, a rare but gentle side. That's why all the colors are warm and soft. I do think it's an interesting suggestion to try a different color to see how it looks. I am going to do that!
