This is beautiful, Dooneys artwork is fantastic! Congrats for this great piece.

You are so sweet!!!.. thank you so much! :) There was some nervousness on my part but at the same time, with Mr. Dooney's talent, I had a feeling it would all work out. :)

Wow gorgeous...a fantastic Dooney commission, luv it. Congrats Holly :=)

She is a beauty... I have had the piece for three weeks and I still can't stop staring at her! Thank you, Double O.. again, you are very kind. :)

This is just fantastic! Sonja turned out to be the perfect subject of one of Mr. Dooney's 1887 pieces! This one might be my favorite of the whole series he's done (so classic how he put in the sword and the dagger into her parasol and garter--not to mention her necklace!)! Congrats on scoring a great piece, Holly!!! :D

Aww, Carlos, thank you. :) Having been a fan of your gallery for such a long time your compliments mean a lot. Mr. Dooney didn't hold back at all and I'm still on such a high about this piece. Who could blame me, right? :D

Great commission by Michael, love how she's wearing the blades and coins. Even has a knife against her thigh, and a special handle on her umbrella - very Sonja-like! Thanks for posting!

Thanks Anthony. :) My favourite part is the dagger against her thigh. It was the one idea I gave Mr. Dooney and I'm so glad that he liked it enough to use it.

Beautiful piece by Mr Dooney...considering Red Sonja's time period..you might not think this would work, but it does..now I want to read her 1887 adventures! :)

Posted on 10/11/2011

When Mr. Dooney told me that he has been a long time fan of Red Sonja- it really eased my mind. Adventures?... I keep thinking that they would be a cross between League of Extraordinary Gentlemen and 3 Musketeers. ;)

Posted on 10/10/2011

Dooney did right by you, Holly. This is really something different and special. Congrats.

Posted on 10/11/2011

Thanks so much, Patrick. :) I had no idea the direction Mr. Dooney would take this but somehow, he captured what I imagined. 'Special' describes this piece perfectly.

A great commission. She is Beautiful

Thank you so much, Dean. :) Thinking about getting this framed- too beautiful to keep in a portfolio.

Posted on 10/15/2011

Very nice indeed. Been thinking about getting one but no luck yet.

Posted on 10/16/2011

Thank you, Fred. :) If you want one, what's stopping you?...Mr. Dooney does such beautiful work it seems like such a shame to wait.

One part cash, the other part is that he haven't been back in touch with me. There also is the matter who to choose. I'm not a Marvel guy so I'm leaning toward Starfire, Donna Troy, or maybe Dove. I am a Titans fan.

That's really an amazing score, Holly! And I must admit: she's just the kind of girl to whom I would happily succumb... ;-) Also, thank you so much for your always brilliant comments and thoughts about my pieces!

Posted on 11/5/2011

Thank you so much, Davide. :) And as for your gallery, it's fantastic!! Your pieces inspire my comments about them, my friend. :)

I love this idea. Great commission!

Posted on 11/27/2011

Thank you! I do have to say that this still blows me away. I mean, I love Red but had no idea how Mr. Dooney would pull it off for his 1887 theme. It really pays to take chances. :)

Very cool! Like this commission! Congrats!

Posted on 7/27/2013

I love this. Grats again on a great collection!

Red Sonja with bustier and parasol, still clutching a sword handle and with little daggers adorning her neckline... She has aged gracefully into the Victorian period. Very cool...

Holly, thank you for sharing this very cool take on this beautiful Red Sonja.
