Description This is supposed to convey the feelings of extreme happiness and serenity. Don't know WHAT I was smoking when I painted this. I'm usually quite morbid.

Oil on illustration board, 15x20".

Amazing. Nice capturing of tone, light, shade, and detail. Really well-centered on the board. So silky smooth and gentle with feminine touches. Great highlights and natural beauty. Stands out quite well in your gallery.

Love your painting, especially the little dragons, very well done I must say. Like the colour choice.

I've only just started my venture into oil painting as I normally use acrylics. Can I ask what brushes do you use to blend the paint with??

Great work

Thanks! I've used both linseed oil and W&N odorless oil paint thinner, and I love the latter. It's what I used for this. The thinner is more of a pain because it's toxic, but the results are so much better. Dries MUCH faster, too.

Well, no, this isn't a self-portrait (and looks nothing like e, actually). But I'm glad you like it.

Larkitten In reply to MJWilliam [2005-01-16 06:19:01 +0000 UTC]

Well, I just thought some of the features on the girls face looked kinda like yours in some of your paintings, but then, I could just be seeing things (which isn't surprising since it's been crappy all week and I'm up at 5 am every morning... bleh!)

MJWilliam In reply to Larkitten [2005-01-16 20:29:47 +0000 UTC]

The face was actually referenced from a Japanese model (Emiri Henmi, I believe, though I wouldn't bet my life on it...)
