My Latest acrylic about 67cm x 47 cm
started out wanting it to be more abstractly but well it didn't happen.
comments and tips welcome.
the hands still has to be finished
and maybe???? a yellow wash at the top part, what do you think.

| Amazing Retha! I like both, but I'd have to agree the digital stands out and seems more erotic. If that's OK to say. I think that because it leaves more to the imagination! Either way well done! |

| i love the changes in the digital....many times i will play with it in my pc too, to find out what i am looking for.....very nicely done......i do think blending his head a bit more with the bg even if its dark, would make it even more impressive...right now there is a bit of a sharpness to where the two forms meet?...nice job on the finished fleshtones too..... |

| Retha, I finally got back to see the completed work. Wonderful! I like the result. I tend to check out the different methods available in photoshop as well. But I'm always drawn back to hand drawing or painting. I like the compostion, you used the space very well. And the colors help set the mood of the painting. It has an Art exhibit quality! I always look forward to seeing your work! Bill |
