Far, far away, in the land of silk and sandalwood lived a beautiful princess. She used to sit by the fire and read the stories about heroes of old and wait for her own fate to come. But what was there to come? Would she be kidnapped by a handsome prince and would live happily ever after? Or would she be forced to marry an old rajah and have her misery end young in the blaze of a funeral pyre? Different stories were told of her, whispered by mothers to their children, stories of love and hate, of joy and misery, of life and death... Yet each shared the same: the life of the pomegranate princess, whether happy or sorrowful, was always very, very special, unlike any other man's or woman's.
The art is the mental result of hot weather, "Prince of Persia" trilogy and a bit of a Bollywood overexposure. Technically this is 80% a digital painting, 10% vector art and 10% photomanip. The princess is hand-drawn basing on a photo reference for the pose and the lighting. The carpet is the only photomanip part as it's texture-based. The ornaments and pottery are a mixture of vector art and painting. Everything else is strict painting&airbrushing without references. The text in the book is the opening verses of "Ramayana" in Hindi... at least I hope so

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More

No need to argue
Anyway, świetny obraz, tylko przez szatę, mam wrażenie jakby była nieco przy kości @_@
Ale twarz i włosy - respect.
