“ I am extremely pleased with not only the final picture but with the creation process! Very professional with attention to detail. Was honestly concerned that the graphic was how I wanted it. Also allowed me to make adjustments along the way. (Like giving my angelic bard an Ebony harp, and making sure my masochistic paladin husband had the proper skin tone.) Will certainly have future art commissioned by Hsiu! ... as soon as I can find more glimmering mica. >.> ”

“Working with animals is never easy: pecked fingers, feathers in my hair, the stench of dead fish... And don't even mention the Apkallu droppings! However, the end result of Hsiu's image was worth the countless hours of posing at Arrapago Reef (my legs are killing me!). Now to attempt to smuggle one of these 'Sages of the Sea' in my Cleric's Cap... They're so cute! ”

Price: Shiny Rock

The commissioner has requested that no electronic copies of this portrait be made because it is too awesome to share with just anyone.
“I had Hsiu make me a drawing. It slept with my wife, stole my car, ran over my dog and ate all my Alpha-ghetti before robbing three banks and killing a hobo. It's the best drawing I've ever seen!”

Requst: Wanted a Taru riding a Mandragora that was wearing an apron that said "HERE COME DA BEEF" while running from a King Behemoth and a Tyrannosaur (or whatever the game has that's like a giant t-rex) AND another mandragora. Oh and that mandragora is like shaking its fist at the taru and other gora for some reason.
