This doesn't quite look like her, but then, the reference picture I used didn't either. I really like how soft this one turned out. The most complicated part of this painting is the knitting of the hat and the texture of the sweater. I'm becoming more interested in simulating texture. It's such a fun process, especially when you start discovering all the different ways you can go about creating them. Hair is not as complicated as it look. It took me probably 15-30 minutes to work on all the twists and knots looking the way they do there. I'm loving the way I work on hair now. It used to be such a hated part of any painting. ^_^ I guess with mucho practice, any dislike can become a favorite as it becomes easier to produce.
I might just have to kill you and still your talent. This is awesome and I must say the texture on the hat is amazing and the skin tones are wow. I'm so jealous! Awesome work.
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.
In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
Have a great time everyone and please fav this article so as many people can see the featured works. I would recommend seeing each one and faving them too.

You're so money, and you don't even know it.
dont mind if i crit you right?
the highlights done on her braids dont match her bangs; the braids look very realistic where as the hair in front looks kinda flat.
its nice how you made the face and hat sharp and the sweater kinda out of focus.

My only problem is that the hat is too textured and sharp compared to the softness of her face and sweater, but that's a very minor detail.
