This is something I've been wanting to do for a while. Take a look at the full-size image, then... Give me your input?
I've gone through a rough charcoal on the outside to rough bristol brush/paint, then on to a fine brush paint on the inside. It took about 24 hours to do. Btw, this is from Dawn's image I did previously.
I love it!



Gosh, you're fast, my friend! You made so happy with your compliments. You're such a good-hearted fellow! :)
DeannaI think Dawn's so lucky to have a friend such as you to make these beautiful works of art in her honor.
I love the way you utilized different techniques to make this faerie beautiful portrait. It has a dreamy aspect of enchantment about it (and of course I love the wings. lol)
I'll look you up on flickr soon. I just opened my account recently and haven't quite got the hang of everything yet. Flickr seems a really good place.
Wishing you a whimsical weekend!
:)
