Description After seeing the Memoirs of a Geisha movie trailer several months ago, I was just so inspired by that single clip of Hatsumomo stepping out of the okiya in all her glory. Her hair was done, her face was pure white with red lips, and she was wearing a dark kimono. I really loved that the actress had this absolute bitch face like she was ready to tear you apart. Her nose was up in the air, and she was just completely indifferent to everyone around her.

Well anyway, a few days after that, I drew this. I wanted to capture the same facial structure as the actress Gong Li. I couldn't get her eyes completely right, but I was happy with them.

If I knew how to use my photoshop program, I'd color it, but colorless will do for now.

I think you captured her ugly side really well.

neat! i love it. you're just good just memorizing and then drawing it out later on. i actually like it like this. it looks traditional and old days portraits.
