Portraits of The Lady Celeste

Commentary by KT Pinto

Victor Toro This was the sketch V drew of Celeste. Believe me when I tell you that I was floored by his work... and this is before he added color...

Victor Toro The finished work, with color and shading and an amazing background. I think you can understand why I was speechless when I first saw this... And yes, there is a reason why the dress she's wearing looks so familiar...

Aaron Wood After Aaron got to know Celeste's character a little better, he did another portrait of her, this one with a retro (or modern, depending how you look at it) spin... this time he captured her perfectly!

Chris Moreno Chris drew this portrait in 2003, when the first draft of Celeste was completed. I really liked how he captured Celeste's "quirky" side.

Onezumi This is the sketch that Oni did for her Celeste portrait. It's the only one that has Celeste kneeling...

Onezumi Oni spent 12 hours getting the coloring and shading just right. The finished product is beautiful, and I love the background!

The Zombie Z has this wonderful world of monsters that he created, and I was thrilled to find that he let Celeste enter his world for a spell!

Aaron Wood Having little information on Celeste at first, Aaron was still able to capture her regal bearing and grace, but otherwise his wonderful art is a little generic...

Jennie Breeden Considering the fact that Jennie spends so much of her limited time doing so many things, I was thrilled to receive this portrait.

Lawrence Gullo As a holiday gift Lawrence asked his friends to give him three words. From these words he would create a portrait. I chose three that described Celeste and was very happy with the results.

Phil Kahn Anyone who's Anyone has an original Phil Kahn portrait and I am no exception. And Phil was the only one brave enough to boldly go...
