Artist's Comments

Part of a project done in my second year at university and submitted for the Macmillan Prize of that year, this is the title spread for Princess Rosette by Catherine d'Aulnoy. At the time, I retold the tale and called it The King of the Peacocks, thinking that the word Princess might appeal only to a particular audience (even though it wasn't going to be published).

Oh, very pretty.
I like the contrast between the man, and the hight of the protrait/peacocks.
I also like the motion of the picture...it's only a picture, but you can see the birds are alive---that they are moving! Could that perhaps be why the bucket has been disturbed? Even uncoloured, it's a beautiful piece. I would love to see the detailing on the feathers though.
Lovely!

Thank you so much.

What I neglected to say was that this was a rough - otherwise I'd never have left it in quite so unfinished a state. ;)

Beautiful piece with a great deal of detail. I think it is lovely when a piece without color and still portray so much.
