Description Another painting starring my girlfriend as the reference model. I didnΒ΄t have any things though out when I started this painting as usual, but I tend to come up with things as I go by. I really wish I could have more good ideas, but I hope this is something I can develop in times to come.

I spent 3 short evenings painting this one, using Photoshop with an Art Pad (Wacom tablet).

You can see the process of making this painting here: [link]

When somebody has a muse for a refference model can do anything. Even without ideas or inspiration the result is beyond reality!!Great job!!!

Using reference is important, I think. It gives away details to the artist that the mind just can't wour out on its own Thanks for visiting and commenting!
