And Bill politely asked if this:
was where I got the inspiration for the hair in 'Koi' (thanks Pippi for the name):
No I didn't, Goddamn it.
But I can sure see why he asked. Don't you hate it when you come up with something, only to see that it was done a few weeks ago by someone else.
Particularly when that someone else is your favourite artist.
Bugger.
Oh well.
Truth be told, I actually got the inspiration for the hair from this:
As much as I'd like to lay claim to channeling my 'inner Audrey' I was really just drooling over a McDonald's soft serve.
Mmmm, might just scoff another one to drown my disappointment!

Haha! Damn!
You're still sending it though right?
Yep, she's still going. It's just annoying!xxxk
That has happened to me so many times. No one has said anything to me about it, but I'll be browsing artists and find something very similar to mine. I didn't copy them...and I don't necessarily thing they copied me either! It's just...weird!
I saw you on Flickr,I really like your work,you are really talented!
I think that everything has been done. You just make it your own:) Very cute by the way.
Oh I hate that. I've had it happen before too - almost to the point that I think that I'M the one who's been copied, and then I find that the other picture was actually posted before mine. Maybe just go with the whole "great minds..." thing. It sounds so much better!!
P.S. - I LOVE that her hair was inspired by a soft serve. It's so cool when your inspiration comes from the most surprising places.
I don't think yours looks too similar to Audrey's! Besides, who can resist a girl with gorgeous flowing hair like that? (love the ice cream, too, btw!)
I love your inspiration! LOL. Ice cream = hair. Who would've thunk it?
It helps when you eat a lot of icecream, Lil. Mmmmm. ;)

I totally understand you, already happened and this is SO frustrating, especially when the othe one is more known than you :( But I think it should not hinder us in our creative process.
Hi Kate! Your jobs are amazing! Have any problem if I link your blog on my blog?
bye, bye!
Hi buhpresas - no problem whatsoever! xxx kate
Oh well, I saw your hair first!
Sadly I think most things have been done before, it's your personal twist that's important and interesting.
