Description

"Guanyin (觀音, pinyin guānyīn, Wade-Giles: kuan-yin) is the bodhisattva of compassion as venerated by East Asian Buddhists, usually as a female. She is also known as the Chinese Bodhisattva of Compassion. The name Guanyin is short for Guanshi'yin (觀世音, pinyin: guānshì yīn, Wade-Giles: kuan-shih yin) which means "Observing the Sounds (or Cries) of the World"."


>_< I was so happy with this drawing I even got a matte for it at work *sulks* But i realized AFTER i matted it, that now due to the depth, i couldnt get a good scan of it. Plus, the glitter pen wasnt showing up on my pieces...Raawr!

So i took a photo of it. Its more true to the tonal values in the photograph on the Right*nod*
