Description
This is a portrait of the beautifulI've been wanting to do a portrait photo study with a twist for a while now, and when I saw *crouching-kitty 's gorgeous portrait photo I had to ask if I could paint it. And, as you might guess, she said yes.
I haven't painted a portrait from ref in a very long time. I've been concentrating on using different styles and learning new techniques. I've learned a lot this last year, but I'm still horrible with proportions and I decided it is time I do some photo studies again. But I still wanted to continue experimenting with different styles and decided to try to paint in a way that was both realism and stylized. I think and hope I succeeded. At least it was fun doing it! ^_^
I spent for ever on this, I am such a slow painter >_<
Tools: Wacom Intuos4, Sai, Painter X and colour adjustment in CS4.
Time: Lost count, but at least 20.

I love this work... especially the eyes. And adding the green glow around the hair and right cheek was a nice touch. It goes well with the eyes and adds to the appeal of the entire composition!
