There wasn't too much to this piece, but that was the reason why i picked it. The simplicity of it intrigued me and I believe I'm more satisfied with it than with most of my work. I'm getting a nack of the hair and now I think i've come to enjoy making digital hair (which is a COMPLETE transformation for me, since i used to dread even trying). But since I had to resize this, it's hard to see the actual detail I put into certain parts of this (eyes, nose, lips, hair). Which is why I decided to make a few close ups for people to see if they desire.

This is also the first piece that i've done where I didn't try to follow the original. Originally, her hair was blonde, but I did away with that simply because I don't want to do another blonde haired subject (since the jessica alba vexel [[link]] was so difficult I thought i'd give it a break for a while). and I changed the shape and flow of her hair, to make it easier on the eyes.

I tried to make it look as if she were some type of famous 1920's actress on a stage with a huge spotlight on her (just in case you were wondering:: It's reason for the background and the glowing feather boa, because when bright white light hits a white object, sometimes it appears to be glowing, heh).

Okay well enough of my babbling. Hope you enjoy :)
