How beautiful and glamorous. It almost looks as if she is walking into a mysterious fog....Is this pen and ink with watercolor?

thanks everyone and glad u like this piece. Hey Square One, ur right that i should say more about Tang Dynasty but the story can be really long...in short, it was China from AD600s to AD900s, exceptionally different from other periods in Chinese History...if you know Tang Dynasty, u'd see the China that you've never seen before!

Is that the notorious Empress Wu, by chance?

Lovely piece!
