Description Ok...so I like drawing girls...sue me!! This is Lara * pullmyheartstrings photographed by Sarah ~cellointhbasemnt they are both extremely talented and sooooo much fun to draw!! (pretty pretty!).
When I saw their galleries I couldn't stop drawing them...so...I am sure I will submit more portraits of them.
This photo was pretty perfect...I didn't want to change anything at all about it (so I guess there is no credits for creativity here)...but the lighting and the little details were a big challenge...I loved working on it...

The photo I used as a reference is here [link]

excellent job tara, this is almost photo-realistic!

the only detail that is a little different is the lips... good job with the piercing, they eyes and the hair.

this portrait really stands out

This is beatuiful, babe. I love how clear and detailed the eyes are. And the hair looks great. When I see a gorgeous, clean, creamy digital portrait with delicious skintones, I know it must be Tara.

The credit and merit are in what you've given to the art. I don't think I'm alone in saying that what you give in your art is magic that only a true art lover, with no hang-ups, can enjoy. As I do.

The skin is a wonderful tone and kept beautiful in your painting of light and shadow.

The hair, one of the hardest things for any artist to do, is awe inspiring.

The eyes are simply mesmerizing with the amount of detail you put into them.

And in painting the metal!!!! Wow... I'm amazed at your wonderful ability to paint metal surfaces alone... But you've also followed the lights, shadows and reflections. Simply amazed.

Wow...really fantastic artwork... that's very well done

I don't like the piercings, too, but if it was on the pic, there's nothing to say...

w o w . This is excellent. As a thumbnail, I thought it was an actual photograph.

I love the way you made the hair look so soft.

The eyes look very real.

Ive always found hands really hard to draw, but you really made them look fabulous here.

Keep up the awesome work!!!!


What the hell did you use to make this look so flawless? I just cant stop looking at it.
