Practicing more portraits with a bit more realism again.
Inspiration came from this vintage drawing: http://rtallamy.com/vintage-womendrawing.jpg
Reference for face is yours truly.. eh, many, many moons ago though.
I know the scarf and other stuff needs worked on, especially clothing textures and making the rose seem more real. Really looking for help on that, too. ]]> Mon, 03 Mar 2008 22:11:13 +0000 http://rachzee.cgsociety.org/gallery/510384

I love painting angels and I can spend hours just on the wings alone while listening to music and relaxing.

I am not a realist painter. So please keep that in mind. ]]> Sun, 24 Jun 2007 16:17:43 +0000 http://rachzee.cgsociety.org/gallery/476642

Usually a fantasy and surreal artist, this oneis one of my first pin-up artworks. I was inspired by Royo.

Drawn and painted in Photoshop Elements 2.0 and Painter 7.

I admit I spent more time on the background than the subject and her image suffers, especially the legs.
The rails need work...basically more details and polish overall I know are needed, and the grassy parts, hair needs more shading, etc. etc...but I'm considering this particular one finished and would appreciate critique/advice for future ones.

Thanks so much for looking and helping me out.
