Artist's Comments

I drew this picture for many reasons. One was that it had great lighting that I wanted to tackle because I haven't done anything like that before. Two is because it's a contest entry. Three is that I loved the expression. To me it seems to be a bittersweet expression and I wanted to reproduce it.

It's quite grainy because my scanner is lousy and I drew it on really grainy paper. That's why the hair isn't really up to scratch because the surface was too rough to get much detail in. But I'm pleased with it. :)

Once again, perfection:thumbsup:
I love the way her hair creates a shadow on her neck. You used the tissue trick on this one?
This is definitely going in my favs :)

Beautiful! The grainy-ness is actually a really neat effect for it : ) makes it look like an old photo, blown up. Guh gorgeous job on the shading : D

Wow. You are amazing at lighting. <3

I love the way the light on her face falls with the shadows from the hair in front.

I think that maybe there could be a bit more contrast on her skin? (Neck area, mostly, maybe a little on the face)

You did an astounding job.
:D
