Creative way to draw her. It's unique, and the hairstyle you did for her looks really nice I like it ^^

Β I really need to see that movie, heard good things and the leading lady is as beautiful as she is graceful. I'm a sucker for cryokinetics, they are either too cool or too gorgeous and just great. Beautiful art I must say, really captures the Frozen charm.

Β Interesting what parts exactly did you photshop? I never photo shopped a painting or drawing I have done.

frostyshadows In reply to creativeserenity87 [2014-10-31 01:00:20 +0000 UTC]

I used photoshop to clean up the outline a bit, since it's normally hard to fix mistakes in watercolor. Β and the snowflakes were completely done on Photoshop.

thanks
I was playing around with Photoshop...I painted the blue parts with watercolor then found a stock image with snowflakes and made the non-snowflake parts transparent, so there's basically a transparent snowflake layer on top of everything
