Fakin' it

Some scenes in Sita Sings the Blues will break style from the cartoony stuff I've done so far. I want to use real antique miniatures, but getting the high-res images isn't so easy. So I've been trying to fake some myself. I've been using Holbein "Irodori" antique watercolors, which claim to "reproduce...qualities that were typical of ancient oriental artistic use," and thick Italian cotton paper, which is natural tan-brown and has visible fibers. Oh, and also Photoshop. Lots of Photoshop. Here's one result.

Hi Nina,

Thank you for all of the wonderful art you have given the world over the years. This latest is great!

I first fell in love with your work reading Nina's Adventures in Santa Cruz. Are those strips available anywhere?

Thanks,

Bruce H.
