Description
Done for ImagineFX Hand Painting workshop. You can find it in Issue 16 (I also made the cover for that one)My goal was to create a bold mood without adding too much unnecessary detail.
Painted in Photoshop with some help from Painter. Refs for the pendant and marble (you can see it as a custom brush used for the face marks); light and anatomy studies for the character.
Linen done with a custom made brush consisting of a few lines.

You got the colours very well, I like the cold tone of it and the details of the hands especially.

I absolutely love it. I enjoy how one of the little spots on her left cheek looks like a ghostly screaming face. My one critique is the positioning of her right hand makes it look like she doesn't have a thumb on that hand; either she was born without one or she's several years out from an amputation.
