Description
A lone angel, Aleta, sits in silence, a wry smile upon her lips as she entertains herself with bitter memories from her past.Aleta literally means Winged.
This here is a small thumbnail sketch I did for another art project; we have to have images that has a continuous theme of some sort. I chose fantasy, but I may change it to make it more appropriate. :3
Anywho, this was done on 4" x 5" sized Bristol Vellum, something I always do when I want a small, but detailed image for a project or commission.
This image was just the brainchild of me listening to Sarah McLachlan. Love her music. Anyways, I got the urge to draw when I was listening to Fallen, and then it rained, and the urge grew into a full-blown idea, so..... yep. :3
I'm particularly happy with the way her hair came out; I usually can't make hair that looks like..... well, hair. Her face and hands came out better than expected too, since I was only giving it a rough look as a guideline. But then I began to define the lines and shade the skin and then... this happened.
I like it though. C:

HOLY FACHIZZLENIZZLEFRIZZLE! WOW.
I have got to say earthlyone, I love where this style evolution of yours is going. the semi-realism-ness is just gorgeous. I've said it before, but I like how all your characters are getting unique facial features and details. You are also one of the very few artists I know who can do lips, and have it still look good.

I do say. I don't think you need to change, you are already awesome, but the changes you are making are pretty flipping sweet. I approve.
Psssh. It still looks great. Silly modest person, you.

This angel does have the appearance that she can't be trusted. I really, really like how her expression turned out.
I can't help but face it!

Nah, she can be trusted. It's just that she had her fair share of sadness and stuff, and I guess she found something ironically funny about that, being an angel and all. :3
YAY!!!!!! 8D I'ma have to keep workin' on mah human faces; gotta make sure they stay... well, viewable. xD
