I spent a ridiculous amount of time on this painting. I have been trying to do more Sci-Fi/ Fantasy paintings lately, with little success (IMO). But this peace really started coming together for me and I learned a TREMENDOUS amount about myself and just painting in general.

I will have to thank the wonderful AmandaTea [link] for this though. Because I just happened to stumble upon her "Stock Images" page and her look just popped out at me and inspired me. And I knew I HAD to do a painting of her. Little did I know when I started, that it would turn out like this. I kind of just let things happen and I surprised myself. Anyways enough writing. I hope you enjoy it has much as I enjoyed making it!

Everything was painted by me in Photoshop CS4 using a Wacom Tablet. (I did use some random brushes for paint splatter effects etc.)
