To be honest, the amount of layers you use is personal preference. I know some artists use only one or two layers, I use about 10-15. Some people will have 100 layers...just depends on what you are comfortable with.

Hauntingly beautiful, yet theres something about her smile that makes you think twice before approaching Lovely use of the blue palette, and your cloth exercise seems to have turned into a stunning piece of mysticism and dark magic all rolled up into one

An enthralling and captivating piece of work because female smiling ghosts rules

This is just incredible. I love the colors you chose, the dark blues, I dont' think it would've had the same effect in any other color, just beautiful.

That's quite stunning. Looks very mysterious, leaves you wondering just who is that. I really like the detail in the cloth folds and the nose up kinda expression.

Cerebr4l In reply to TranscendenceEngine [2006-10-17 18:19:27 +0000 UTC]

Thank you for your comments. I was going for that "mysterious" look. Who is she? Is she good or evil? She seems to know something that I don't...
