Description I wanted to illustrate a scene from The Picture of Dorian Gray. It was a good book.

I discovered I cannot draw men very well. I wish my figure class ever had a male model, we always have the same two female models. There's no male models in this darned town.

Someone come over and pose for me. >8I

Prince Charming looks a little better in blond but the background looked better. Again, nice use of color and I may have read the book before!

Beautiful picture! Great colors, shading, lighting, and depth of focus!

I actually never did read the Picture of Dorian Gray- though I think I know the general story. Guess I'll add it to my Reading List!

Thanks man!

Ohno, I won't. I tend to avoid movies off of books like the plague, unless someone suggests them to me.

It's a good book, though the beginnings a little slow.

In that case, I might leave it until my college applications are done. >.<

But you did a fantastic job in painting this. Especially on the shading.

Not a problem!
So what's the book about?

Zakeno In reply to Shiny-Hunter [2012-11-04 02:19:39 +0000 UTC]

It's a classic novel by Oscar Wilde, about a man whose portrait ages while he stays eternally young.
