My first proper painting in three years. The whole thing took around 12 hours to paint and I think I managed to encompass the personality of my subject.
A serious, yet fun-loving woman Lorelai is very much the reason amongst the chaos that often surrounds her.
For her eyes, lips and nose I used a 0.1mm brush to make the detail look even more realistic.
This causes the eyes of the viewer to focus on the face and the rest of the picture acts as a backdrop to it.
The other details such as the flowers on the dress were painted with a 0.3mm-0.6mm brush. while the background, hair and torso were all painted with a 0.6mm-2mm, creating a far messier and more impressionistic look.
