A lot lighter than my usual work, I'm not even really sure if I like it, but I think I do, just in a different way

I was listening to FoW all last night while I was just messing around in photoshop and I came up with this quick image (8 hours). So the lyrics to Valley Winter Song kept going through my mind "hey sweet annie..." and it sorta just stuck.

So for those of you who like dreamy, soft, flowery, sweetness and light images, this is for you!

Oh gosh, this is beautiful. She's so delicate and pretty. The way you've painted her makes me think of a winter/snow fairy.

Gorgeous work. ^^

RetroZombie [2007-07-13 00:26:20 +0000 UTC]

It is a stylistic departure for you, but I love it! It's very soft and light - very pleasing to the eye. I could gaze at it for hours!

The only thing that's missing, in my opinion, are some shadows - by the figure's hand, and around the cloth that's lying on the leaf/ground (and maybe a smidge more under the butterfly). I always seem to be zeroing in on those shadows, don't I?

I like how there's just enough contrast between the figure and the background so that she stands out. And the wings are fantastic, as usual!

I adore the anathomy and how you painted every little muscle and bone. Especially the feet and the knees seem absolutely perfect to me. The background is very gentle. The little butterfly is a nice detail. Honestly, when I saw the thumbnail I thought it was a photomanip. Very realistic

👍: 0 ⏩: 1

cosmosue In reply to drop-asd [2007-06-16 08:25:54 +0000 UTC]

It is mixed media, it is neither a photomanip or a painting, its a combination of the 2

Thanks for all the comments.

I love the way you colored the skin. I've been trying to wrap my head around drawing pale and or white skin with out making it look too opaque. This is akin to Brom in how you did the skin. Very nice.
