Hello peeps, this is my second submission to the amazing group called Monkey See Monkey Drew :iconmonkeysee-monkeydrew: This piece was a bit more challenging than the last one because the reference was a person. I spent most of my time on the face and didn't pay too much attention to the clothes, kinda blast through those. Other than that I'm trying to keep these with an hour range. I may have gone over by 10 minutes. Any hoot, I hope you all enjoy this quick piece.

Here is the link to the photo reference [link]

Time: 1hour with 10 minutes.
Tools: Photoshop CS5, Wacom Intuos 5, Windows 7 OS

When she's looking at you it's like she has nothing else better to do other than to hear what you might have to say.  The color scheme of the background suggests to me that she is imprisoned in a place that is cold and harsh.  The dark around her eyes suggest to me that she has been deprived of a lot of things for a while.  Her skin is really white because she doesn't get to live any life or go out anywhere to have fun.  But her hair is red because she still wants to live; she still has that flaming red will to live.  Her facial expression is many things; it is sad, angry, hurt, and afflicted.  But I don't see it that she is evil.

What you see in this picture hints at how I would feel about being in college sometimes. You might have made the physical picture in one hour.  But I suspect that you had been thinking about making a picture like this for some time. It's a good picture because a coldness seeps from it, and the human emotion that it conveys that others can relate to. 

Good Work! Clap deviantART deviantART Clap
