very nice improvment here! I am a big fan of Jan Vermeer.

Lovely entry. Only thing maybe, whiten her teeth (looks like some of her lipstick rubbed on them) and whiten the eyes.

djramz99 (Nov 27, 2006)

Again, thanks for the nice comments. I too am a fan of Vermeer, but especially this painting. It is one of my all time favorites.

Thanks for the good observations Sweetcell, I will fix that as soon as I can.

haha, I was actually thinking about reproducing this painting since I'm reading the actual book and all. :P
Well anyhow, you did a fine job on this painting.

I just read Kloxboys rule to post the name of the artist and a link. As has been mentioned this is a Vermeer, and it can be seen at http://orgtheory.wordpress.com/files/2006/08/vermeer.jpg

great entry- there is a film by this name that I really want to see... must get it out on hire... you have really modelled this well...looks almost 3d

djramz99 (edited Nov 28, 2006)

I have not seen the film, but there is a book that just came out called I am Vermeer. If I understand it right, it is about a guy that was hired by someone to copy Vermeer paintings, so if the Nazis stole them they would be stealing fakes. But apparently he was so good that later they werent sure which were originals and which were copies.

Yes- I heard about that too,,,, it was around the time of the second world war...
