Description

Another oil. This one is of a reasonably well known TV presenter. Despite Uwe's instructions on how to take photo's of paintings, I still took this one without a tripod - but taken indoors this time, without a flash - so is a better likeness of tha actual painting. Interestingly, the digital version shows a lot of harshness below the right side of he lips (those wrinkles), which don't look so bad on the canvas version. Also, the specular has come out extremely red, whereas on the canvas version it's a truer white. ALL postwork :-)

It's excellent. I can see tha your talents as an oil artist provide a strong foundation for your wonderful digital work. I always need to to tweak colors when I take photos of paintings. I used to do a lot of Giclee prints for artists and color matching was always the number one challenge.

I like your painting... almost bettr than your poserism... digital is cheap, but not always the best medium to reproduce canvas artwork... I think you've done very well here with both painting and photography... (V)

Paul, your painting improves with every painting... The eyes and expression are very lifelike! The color shifting in the photo comes from the presets of the camera, they are never 100% but close. The only way to get it is making it manual with an white pice of paper... ~Uwe

Very nice. I love the sheen you've captured on the skin. Nice life in the facial expression, too. If I have a crit, it would be about the background--I feel as if it should be darker or more active somehow by being reflected more in the tones of her skin.

There's a face to charm a nation. Dust off that old Cannon. Never lets you down.

Mate I couldn't believe my eyes when I saw the thumbnail, that's Jana Wendt I said and then I saw the title.There's something really cool about seeing an aussie icon,well done on both the painting and the choice of subject matter.

I tried to paint her for the Archibald once but couldn't get to her, almost had Burt Newton this year but could not get a time that worked but thats how it goes but it's good to see another painter.
