burntshrubEpica is awesome. Especially their newest album. This is a fantastic piece. It really jumps off the screen and you really captured her trademark red hair.

Excellent :)

SimplyZippythanks so much :) very glad you like the painting!

I haven't been able to get my hands on the new album yet. :( I'm really hard to find symphonic metal albums around here, so I'd have to order it online, and I don't have a credit card. sad day.

I do get a kick out of the album's title, though. XD sounds like a definite drug reference.

burntshrubThe new album is definitely one of their best. If you like Epica, you HAVE to get that CD!
