Shan·gri-la (shnggr-lä
 n. - An imaginary remote paradise on earth; utopia. - A distant and secluded hideaway, usually of great beauty and peacefulness. [Entry taken from dictionary.com] I started this picture like two-three weeks ago and I neglected it for quite some time, because it was originally an attempt collab with ~Lukiih...except she wasn't very cooperative...nor was she motivated to draw. Another reason why the progress of the picture remained stagnant for a while is because I, myself did not know what to draw...I had nothing in mind, no specific details at least, when I drew the light guide lines for the picture. Basically I had an abstract concept, but no concrete components. I just wanted to draw a lot of flowers, except I'm not very good at drawing flowers...so the garden evolved into a scene that depicts a mini-pond that is surrounded by trees, mushrooms, flowers, and a giant fan-like-gate-thingie (....in all my eloquence...). ~Lukiih drew like 2 things in the picture. Can you figure out what she drew? Our lines are different. D: Art & Character (c) Ying Xue Chen (& ~Lukiih) |
