Description
Posing for reference to human figure drawings, i digitally enhanced this photograph, blurring out the distracting background and brightening the colours and contrast (mostly because my camera isn't a very good one) I achieved this photograph. the only photograph I've taken of me this way that I'm actually proud of.Here's a few pieces I've continued working with the photo with:
Popped Self Portrait
My Dark side
wings of a lady
AND since its such a relevant time and place. A FEATURE!
A painting of my self portrait photograph^^
this time its a painting by my good friend back in the UK, John L. So go check out his new site!

Gozza,
This is a classical pose. Very beautiful. I hope the eroticism was intenional. It's very hard to achieve this in painting, but your digital enhancements are just right.

Welcome to dA. The pose is a really nice one, and your hair falling forward really adds to it. The background colour is nice, and I think the colour is great. Nice work.
