I'm so very pleased to do this portrait of Lara Jade aka `larafairie We spoke about doing a portrait several months ago and now here it is! Finally finished!
Obviously it is dedicated to
This actually may need to be moved to "mixed media" because it has:
Light Watercolor Underpainting Rembrandt Color Pastel (the majority of the portrait) Prisma Color Pencils for fine Detail and "clean up work"
I've been having issue with my scanner, so I am aware that there is a bit of a dark "smudge" running vertically down her hair, but I tried to mask it some in Photoshop till I can get another scan that doesn't reflect what I am assuming is a bad bulb or the need for a recallibration.
I hope you enjoy it! It was a pleasure to do and I hope that Lara will allow me to paint/draw her again. One of my first friends on DA, and a great person!
Amazing portrait! I've tried traditional media many times with quite bad good results, and given I'm not even close to doing great portraits digitally, I must say this one is awesome!! Excellent work, Angelles
Looks absolutely gorgeous. I didnt do any traditional portrait in a long time and beauty of this is really pushing me to do one these days. I love how you painted the flower and her face.
There are a lot of themes that run through the stock gallery many people have similar ideas but they pull them off in different ways. In this series of newsletters we will look at similar ideas but different outcomes.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
When it comes to community spirit, `Rushy is a shining example. From participating in devmeets, to providing positive encouragement to other artists, `Rushy can always be found demonstrating what it really takes to be a true deviant. It's without any hesitation that we are delighted to award the Deviousness Award for July 2009 to `RushyRead More
