I have been in love with this woman for the longest time (wait... did I just say that out loud??). Wonderful job on this one. Now if you could just work Jewel in there with her (er, sorry...). Kudos!

No covering over Cerpher, which is why they take so long to do...

I like the likeness a lot :) (I also like her music.. I especially did at her starting career): I would have just made hair of more brown colour than blonde.. though I know she's bleachin them till this tonal range (sadly) ;)

Thanks Meli, but she was almost blonde in the pictures that I referenced. You're right though, she originally did have more of a brown tint to her hair in earlier pictures I'd seen of her.

:o) And to think you were considering "giving up" on 2D painting... I for one am glad that you've kept at it. Otherwise we wouldn't all be enjoying this great image. You've given this an inner life. Very well done!
