Description
Part of a painting for a book I did some six months back. Originally she was sitting on the back of a dragon, but I was never really happy with the way it came out and repainted the background in my own time as my own personal sanity saver - everyone needs a sanity saver, and this was part of mine!Pencil sketch on paper, painted in photoshop. Click on it for full size - well the full size of the posted image anyway!

Every time I pass by this image I am enchanted. I was looking at some of Melanie Delon's stuff and I came across this- [link] and immediately thought of your painting. Both are lovely.

Kind of embarrassed to admit, but I wasn't aware of Melanie Delons work and had to do a google search- very flattered by the comparison!
Thanks for checking out this piece and the lovely words!

Thanks man. As for photoshop brushes, I use two brushes for just about everything - standard soft brushes for grades and a standard hard edge brush for hard edges.

Thanks! Hands used to be problematic for me, so I put some effort and lots of practice into improving my skills in that area!
