Description Self portrait give or take a line.. Aww come on what girl doesn't like to play dress up? I started this gosh 1 year ago maybe more. Glad to be done. My Mother is beautiful, I look like my Father.....Oh shush I know I'm handsome.;}
I used a photo reference for me. Googled images for the bee, clouds, moth and moon. If you count me staring at my hands, then yes I had a reference for those as well. I hate using a reference...feels like I'm cheating.

Wow, that worked out really good!
Very well drawn face.
The poppy drinking from your veins is kinda Kalho-ish^^ You like her paintings?

Thank you very much! I love Kahlo. Though I can not say it was a conscious decision to go there, but I can really see it now.

Such an amazing image - gorgeous - I hope I'm half as good as this someday in digital painting. The skin & hands are exquisite, and I love the orange stone on the collar. And of course all the Symbolist details . . .
