Description Well, ever since drawing all that jewelry in the Leilani portrait I can't think about anything else anymore except shiny things. Or as the beautiful German word would say: Glitzerkram. So I thought "what the heck, I'm just gonna do another one and make her sparkle like no one else has sparkled before!" Okay maybe it's not that extreme, but you get the idea

Interestingly, this first started out as a "Draw This Again", something I occasionally do for myself to see my progress. And just because it's so hilarious I thought I would post it here. To be honest, the picture on the left is when I didn't have my iPad Pro with the Apple pencil but "just" a regular one. And it was when I just started out and had been drawing for about 1 and a half months. I didn't even like it back then (it landed in my scraps folder) but it took me 2 and a half hours. Really!    Not that I am that fast now, but it's great to see that there is also some improvement when it comes to the time I need to finish a painting

Now, behold! --> sta.sh/01aghlbqkmen

I guess this is a good picture to look back to and gain some motivation and encouragement that skills like drawing just need time and practice. Everyone can do it, we just need to be patient. And one year from now I will hopefully look back at my Elven Princess here and think "meh, I can do better now"

This is incredible! I'm loving the sparkliness of your pieces of late, they look very mesmerising! Even with the elven ears, you can tell she looks ethereal, the lighting and the glints in her hair really add to this. Plus your progress, is amazing! It's actually giving me some motivation to keep going, you can really see the improvements in the past year and a half! Stunning work as always!

oh how awesome! i can't believe that's less than a year of progress - the speed that you grow your skill at is unreal! I'm so glad you added more shiny stuff - it was one of my favorite parts of your recent work. Nailed it.

Thank you so much! yeah in the beginning it has been very easy to make a lot of progress fast, now it’s slowing down. But since I got introduced to Borodante’s YouTube channel I have the feeling that it’s been getting better because I’m learning again ^^ (you know, me the lazy student..)

I just went and checked it out - I had stumbled on his videos before but didn't know who he was. But yes, his videos are so thorough! I'll be counting on em to help me get to the next level - which I see by your latest work that you're already on your way to!

This is utterly stunning! You are so talented! This is amazing, especially when I look at your progress indeed, she looks so stunning, her features are so delicate and her jewelry so angelic/elf-like it's so sparkly indeed, I love how you did those, I feel so bad, ahh there's so much you can achieve easier and better almost with digital, teach me master

Omg thank you so much!   
But you're right, I really have to admit that if I had to do something like this traditionally I would end up with this:  

So I absolutely admire your skills and how one can turn a blank sheet of paper into something so beautiful (and creepy..) like you do

Oh that's okay, you deserve it, I was broke for words when I saw it yesterday, I though yeesh, I'll wait till tomorrow to process this one, and give a comment worthy of the piece xD

Well, I guess we all have things we're good at and things we're not so good at x)
You're so kind! :>

Ah - die Rückkehr der spitzen Ohren und des "Glitzerkrams"

Tolle Schattierung von Haut und Gesicht und hervorragend gesetzte Glanzpunkte auf Augen und Schmuck...

...insgesamt sehr stimmig!
