wow, nature! Great frog and surroundings, you use the water colors so well, I have so much trouble with that. That's a beautiful painting and green coloring, also.

I started this months ago i just wanted to empty my gallery, i'm not doing a self portrait nobody wants to see a pair of huge dimples grinning back at them.

It's so pretty and dewy-looking. I dunno. Might be dangerous to glamorize a bottle holder, could start a flaunting trend. Soon young men with pretty bottle holders will walk the streets wearing strangely designed trousers with the ass cut out. Oh, wait. They already do that in San Francisco. Nevermind.

I dont mind the dodge and burn in this pic, i think she used them well without over doing it.

I like to lick mustard off people, does that count?

We used to have a replica of this painting in our library growing up, scared the crap outta me when I was in there late at night. This does look a lot like it, you sure put a lot of time in your work, I don't know how you spare so much.

aww, nice effects.

If you look at this from the side, it's nicer lol...♥

Thanks. Yeah, I did warm up the colors some. I wanted it to look a bit faded and old fashioned but don't think I accomplished that. In the ref photo (which I didn't follow much at all except for the pose) she seems to be kneeling next to a chair. Could be interpreted as rather suggestive, I guess. I'd kill for that hair.

Terrific piece! Great idea for a drawing! I use those power strips to make an outlet more accessible that otherwise can't be reached =) Lovely lighting and textures too!

very pretty
