this was inspired & was re-interpreted art by me from a short story (chapter name: "A Dancing Girl") written by the author Barry Hughart in his beautiful Chinese fantasy novel, "Bridge of Birds" Her name was Bright Star & she was murd3r3d by a princess for jealousy over a handsome soldier. Her ghost (depicted here) was challenged by one of the novel's protagonists, Number Ten Ox to the beautiful but deadly 'Sword Dance'.Bright Star's earthly bonds were broken & she was reunited with her lover.

to ^'Saintblue': i was actually discussing that with my husband (also an artist) & i just may do that soon so please be on the lookout for it.
to ^'Lucsdf': wow! coming from you, it is a tremendous compliment. thank you! i, too hope that it isn't flagged: i do not believe in censorship & my intention to have br3asts exposed was for story & aesthetic reasons, not to be provacative.
