Actually, Pops, you are not too far off. It is from one Zulu word, "khanyisa" which loosely translated could mean "to enlighten" / "to light up" / "to spread the light" or simply "to light". Regards from one who enjoys "to light" :-)

"khan yisa" is probably Afrikaans for "If you wear a white hat I can fool you forever!" or something like that. This is fabulous and, alas, not mine. Wish it was.

@ Edwaard Beal Esq: I fear not even ''sache' of L____' may be potent enough to fix the wig used here!

The same red lipstick as was used for the lips, was also smeared around the lollipop to ensure the colours match 100%.

That's RED. Ya've just gotta say that in all caps. The green eyes really are fantastic. ~Lydia

Lovely, Genghis... lovely! Don't think I have seen a Red quite as Red as that Red is.... RED..?

Love the skin texture and those eyes. I recommend perhaps a 'sache' of L____ from Paris for those 'split ends' though ... lol

I really like the color contrast between the red and the green green eyes. --mlynn

Khan, you did a wonderful job with the colourization of this, particularly the skin tones. - Canonite
