I'm very happy with how this turned out. I used a photo reference but painted it freehand. I was horrified to discover that some people think I trace my images... *pukes* I have to clarify.

She is pretty, the background matches with the tonality of the skin and the red hair is wonderful. I loved this image! If you want you can check my gallery for a draw with the title 'Gone wtih the Wind' I think you might like it! But your work is amazing!

This is beautiful! People who accuse others of tracing their images are usually just jealous of other people's talent. I happen to envy your talent but have no doubt it's *your* talent. Excellent job!

As usual...you're amazing Just found brushes in my PS Elements...wish I had your tablet.. ..now. Jealous.. Your pix reminds me of some of the g-great+ ancestors. Had lots of painters back then. Guess the talent went to mom and sisters, but I try. Keep up the great work s to artist.
