Description

This was a really fun piece for me. It really came out of nowhere, I wasn't even feeling particularly 'inspired' but it all just sort of came out. It was originally supposed to be someone else but I decided to go with this.

This is a character I made up when i was a little girl. She's the goddess of plants and in her mortal life she was a princess(which is why she's so fancy). She was supposed to marry the god of plants but she died and he fell in love with someone else before they even met. I never had a name for her but I thought I should and I've always liked Evangeline. .... I was a very romantic child. haha

Her outfit is a tiny bit too Marie Antoinette for me, but it was all fun to do so I'm fine with it. I really didn't know what to do for the background, I really really suck at backgrounds, I get impatient and uncreative with them, but this one will do.

I started this last night and worked on it all day today. It took about one and half seasons of Friends to do(I always watch it when I paint).
Drawn in pencil, painted in photoshop.

i really love her eyes! very pretty and expressive. you look into the depth of her eyes and feel so sad

it seems like you paid all the attention to her eyes and it doesn't match the style of the rest of your pic, though, because her eyes are semi-realistic while the rest is very impressionistic with soft pastelly colours

i like the grass and the foliage anyway, it is indeed romantic ;)

i have only one personal peeve of this image, though. Her skin tone looks....orange. it looks like she got a bit too fake-tan happy. But then again i'm a bratty little goff girl :p so ignore me

I agree with both above. Also, I really do not like how her dress sits on her lap it seems to create a really round effect like she has a gut almost. But it looks quite nice other than a few things.

I like the colors, but I think the proportions are off, the face/head looks a lil big for the neck and what not... either way its a nice painting.
