Aftermath

I'm inviting comments on this and all images in this gallery. Be honest, but keep in mind that I don't use a tablet and stylus, just an old-fashioned mouse (budgetary reasons) I will rectify that as soon as I am able but for now, this is what I've got.

Don't Even Breathe.jpg

I think I've gone about as far as I can with just my silly mouse. I really need to get a stylus and tablet

This painting was based on a sketch by another artist, but was done in a very different style.

Hello Tattoo.jpg

I was quite pleased with the way this one turned out. It's a bit of an hommage to the artist Brom, with the red hair and the white pale skin, but I spent more time trying to get the tattoo to look right, particularly at the place where it's "peeling away" from the woman's skin.
