Artist's Comments

I'm...not sure what prompted this. I know I've had a story on the backburner for a while that has some major Sokka/Suki moments (no Sokka-death, though, so I can't explain the mourning in this), and of course there is my obsession with Suki and all things Kyoshi Warrior-ish...

And then there were certain things shown at *ahem* Comic Con. ^_^ Much love for the Secret of the Fire Nation previews.

And I just plain love sunflowers--they cheer me up when I feel sad, and I've felt a little sad these past few months.

But I'm still not sure why this came into being. Nor do I know why or for whom she's mourning. Maybe for her fallen warriors. But she's older here...so I dunno. I know there are some errors in her costume/pose, but it's too late to fix them. *le sigh* So they stay. (It bothers me that she's one of my faves and I still don't know her costume well enough to manage to not flub it up without a reference pic--no reference here, hence the flubs).

This was done quite a while ago, during my huge absence when my internet was in flux. It was just a bit of a doodle that grew...got colored recently (out of boredom), etc. Expect more Suki doodles eventually. She's my favorite to draw and there's soooo much excitement waiting for the next episodes...Jet probably will show up in doodles too, except he's more difficult to draw...but I do wuv him so.

On another note: *waves the Sokka/Suki banner* There are not enough fans of this pairing (or else we're all not fessing up). I would love to see more Suki art and fic. ^_____^ PLEASE?

It's very beautiful. Whatever she's mourning for, it is very compelling and convincing. I like the choice of colour, the pose - who am I kidding? I like it all. The sunflower definately makes the picture what it is. Without it the picture would just not bring a focus like it does here. That is why I really like it.

Lol. I do need to work on more pictures... ^^ I'm sorry it's not from something you know, but I haven't had any GW inspiration in a long time. I really have hit a snag with my drawing muse... I will try to show more stuff, though. ^_^

The coloring is REALLY good. And it's good to see a pic of Suki. Don't see enough of those, I think. I also think that the water effects are really good. I might have to get you to color some of MY stuff.

Yay sunflower!

Oh, come on. Whatdya mean "Don't see enough of those." You've peeked in my sketchbook, Boo. You KNOW there's a lot of Suki pics in there. So YOU see plenty of Suki pics. ^_^

Water is now fun. Maybe I can show you how I did it...if I remember (and if I haven't merged all those layers yet). But I'd be uber-happyhappyjoyjoy to color something for you. I WUV you, you know. With a lever long enough (or a Sokka cute enough), you'll move the world and you'll have the whole of penbee-art-abilities at your command. ^_^ Maybe a Jet chibi, too? For the desktop? *is a greed-mo*

Sunflower-power!

Thank you very much. I was hoping the emotion was achieved (and I'm glad it was ^_^) Part of the color is just a result of Suki herself (she has such a lovely pallete), but I had a lot of fun with the rich greens and other hues around her. And I'm very very happy that the sunflower takes such a central role ^_^
