I just get finished digesting all AH! has to teach (I gobble up his new DVD, cover art book and online vids) about only using the whitest white (paint) to bring out eyes or metals. Less is more! Be sparing! I think I'm getting it! And then he does this.... and I'm back to padawan peon status. This is inspired, Mr Hughes! Hopefully see you in NYCC.

I give up in trying to find new superlatives for these pieces. Simply the wittiest, prettiest faces ever!

Wonderfully executed. I like how you've gone easy with the inked lines on her face and just used them to bring out the hand more.

Genius, obviously. But I especially love the fierce, arched eyebrows.

I don't want to blow sunshine up your ass Adam but my god, with an absolute minimum of visual information you're STILL able to impart the most numbing sensuality to your work. We have a head, and a little faded cleavage and a hand - that's it!
Well done mate, I think the kids out there need to take note of what can be achieved with a minimum of fuss.
Not every artwork needs to be a Sistine Chapel sized undertaking.

The funny thing is: I drew more of the actual piece, which was then covered up by the logo and frost vignette effects.
Thank you for the kind words!

I love it when you do reflections and mirror images. They're always so much fun to look at.
