Artist's Comments
Stretching my fingers again. This time with a portrait (although I'll admit to taking some artistic license) of Stock goddess `mizzdraconia (aka *mizzd-stock, aka Ida). Every now and then I find a stock photo that I just *need* to paint, and this was one of those times.
Based mostly on this image: [link] And the style is vaguely inspired by the work of Howard Pyle, who is the master of pirate paintings. I worked on this during my Ustream session. You can watch the underpainting process here: [link] |
