Innocent Girls II

I was quite happier that my past Innocent Girls pieces were sold out last year. Now I have created 20 new graphite pieces again. They are more different than previous ones, I really enjoyed improving my skills.

I explain why these girls got hit by arrows. I heard a lot from my real friends who are broken-hearted girls. They said to me, " I feel hurt 'coz he got cheated on me! " " I can't believe that he loves spending time with his friends more than me! " " He doesn't like me because he doesn't enjoy my low-class job so he broke up with me. " " I broke up with him because he isn't sweet to me anymore. " " I'm happy that we broke up... I figure it out that he isn't my right guy. " etc... I felt quite sad for them and realized that their hearts are hitting by bad arrows, I mean, they could break their innocences. I saw their real expression: angry, depressed, confused, hurt, unlucky, paranoid and go on. So that's what I got ideas and started drawing girls. I also got inspired by Hayao Miyazaki's lead girl characters, Nausicaa & Princess Mononoke. I learned from Miyazaki how he created many different expressions / actions of his girl characters.


The original drawings are done with graphite on thick papers. It measures 7" X 7" inches. Anyway, enjoy viewing!
