Description
Behold, my greatest work in a long time!PLEASE full view! This painting has taken me about three weeks and I have put my heart and soul into it.
Will possibly be available as a print (a limited number though!) that I will sell at SPX.
Assignment for uni, where we got to choose any subject for an illustration - the point was just to make a 'bragging piece' that would be good for a portfolio. I chose to do a raven with Mucha influences. The background contains all kinds of information about the raven, including symbolism.
Media: watercolor and a bit of acrylic. And some fixing in Photoshop...including the text.
The center of the pink circle with the mountains has been redone, I cut out the original because it was in full color and stole attention from the focus raven.
I don't even know how many hours this took!

That really turned out great! The colors look much better than in the first version,.. the details and the coloring of the branch also works verry well and the composition is great!
Congrats on a beautiful piece of art!

This has an Arts Noveau flavor of the Parisian turn of the century manner. Lovely.
