CallMePo - Mistress and Maidservant circa 1815

Another excellent portrait of Mistress Arianna and Candy by CallMePo.

It seems Candy has some apparent talent for the shamisen.  The kimonos are the winter variety - gets chilly in Kyoto around this time of year (well....any year).

CallMePo - Mistress and Maidservant circa 2013

I think I might turn this into a series....to explore different looks and times, but approximately the same pose.

Here we have Mistress Arianna and Candy - sitting for a portrait of sorts.  Roughly contemporary - 2013 or so - by CallMePo.

CallMePo - Sibling Rivalry

Cross-posted to "Growing up Gecko".

I've had this idea for quite a while - and the longer I followed CallMePo - the more it seemed more or less exactly the right sort of commission for an artist like him.  Only problem for me was - despite his huge number of commissions - I always seemed to miss his really short open periods.  That's the problem with working with a popular fellow.

Still, got in the queue this time - and the results were speedy and excellent!

Meg's not a bully, but as anyone growing up with siblings can attest to...every now and then someone really needs a noogie!
