"Sanura" Greeting Card

"Sanura" - an Egyptian princess - an illustration for a short story written by Kachina Mickeletto that will be appearing in my upcoming art book (a sequel to Strangeling - my first book ) - the followup will be published next year by Blue Angel. Sanura is a grumpy Egyptian princess, shown here with an Egyptian Mau cat (modelled after my own cat Tigrillo, who looks like a plump little mau). Aesthetically I've tried to evoke the imagery of the Egyptian Revival movement of Victorian England and academic France and the romanticised settings of Alma-Tadema, Gerome, etc. combined with one of my own contemporary pop surreal big eyed girls. I really love how it turned out. Keep an eye out for the book! My own original acrylic painting.
