Acrylic on canvas.
I am probably going to go back and change some things, but now it's 6:49 am and I've been up all night.

imagery
- lipstick, something that I am obsessed with lately.
- apple = Snow White. Meaning how most of us base our standard of beauty on Caucasian. A sad truth.
- prunes, related to my Chinese name given by my grandpa, who I miss everyday.
- the color scheme is kinda like the inside of a shell... also very dreamy and bubbly.
- peacock feathers = a chase after glamour.
- 8 ball in her left eye. Because there was one on the table when I painted this. A very special person gave it to me.

Other than that, you can interpret it freely. There really isn't much meaning behind, I was trying to go for the "L'art pour l'art" idea.

Lovely! I like how there can be seen some rougher brush strokes... Like in the nose. I also like the blending and how the blue, yellow and red go so well together

the color scheme you used is awesome but it's hard to see some of the details. then again, it might just look more obscured because it's scanned.

The colors remind me of a baby shower. XD

The picture is taken with an iPhone 3G. lol
But I guess I also intended for some of the things to be a bit blurry. I am pretty sure that I will go back and change some things after a while.
