Description
Based on Gustave Dore's 1866 illustration work for John Milton's 'Paradise Lost', I thought it might be interesting to update the original into a more contemporary setting. Since I was referencing an existing artwork, I Initially planned this as a quickie of perhaps 3 hours, but 15 hours later I was still fooling around with it. I had problems with just about everything, posing, lighting, the clouds, the lithograph finish - I have to admit it was sheer frustration and determinaton that drove me on.
Here's the original of Dore's work so you can compare the two versions.
