I’m not sure how this looks on your monitor, but if it’s anything like mine, the colors in the original aren’t quite as saturated, but still, it’s a fair representation.
Sharon: I'm glad you like it. I keep staring at it, thinkin 'something ain't right.' (probably me)
Robin: Well, you're probably a lot saner if you stick to just writing. I think writing is more theraputic, regardless of the end product. Besides that, a book on a shelf, or a manuscript on the desk doesn't taunt you the same way a painting on the wall might :)
Well, thanks, Glenn... ...but you have to admit (if you look closely) that the likeness is a little off; not sure exactly what it is yet. The first thing that comes to mind is Edward Scissor Hands [gosh, I hope the subject or her partents don't read this]. Maybe I've seen too much vampire stuff on other blogs lately...maybe I just need a few days away from it and then give it another look... ...anyway, that's what I think...
This is splendid. I keep wondering what book she's reading. I'm sorry you feel something is off. There's nothing worse than being a bit dissatisfied with our creations. That feeling of "settling." I hope you can find peace with this one. I think it's lovely, and her hair is my favorite part. :)
I like the hair, too. I think maybe the face needs more shading on the underside--needs more depth, perhaps. Maybe it's the hairline...could be...hmmm...just haven't put my finger on it...
Beautiful! I'm just blown away. Even printing on the book pages. Just amazing!
ReplyDeleteWow. It makes me wish I could paint, draw, do anything artistic.... It's really lovely.

ReplyDeleteOh, and it seems a few are curious about the book she's reading...The Proud Prince.
ReplyDeleteThat book is beautiful! Now I want to read it. :)
ReplyDeleteIt was published in 1903, so you can imagine how full of adverbs it is :)
