Portrait No 2: Asiasque
Oh, grief!!! Look at that garbage paint stroke choices... I think I'm going to be sick.
The above image is a reworked version of a piece I had previously done when I was learning traditional and digital medium painting. As you can tell from the original painting on the right, it looks nothing like the re-mastered painting. The reference photo is lost (I have the organizational skill of earphones left to their own devices in a gym bag. If you happen to maybe recognize her maybe leave a comment so I can credit her.
Okay, sure! Do the color choices make it seem a bit muddy. Yeah, I think I can live with that (for now) so long as the work is legible and the brushwork is confident and unified. I do think I could have lit her up a little to make some parts readable...a little bit. But because of the technique I sometimes use (grayscale to color), I don't think it could be helped much... Well, it could but it would have taken another week and I have the patience of a crowning turd.
At the end of the day, one just has to Yoga it and say, "Enough that is" and submit themselves to whatever may come. Just fucking call it.
I like it a lot. I also like the phrase
I enjoyed reading your post very much. Nice job.
Thanks a lot, @owasco. Nice to know I'm not such a bad writer.
So many hidden talents in that box of yours...
Like a mystery loot box.
Thank you, @jaynie
@deadsparrow,
This is very good (mind you, if you consider the source, that may or may not be a compliment). :-)
Words are more my foray so I'm going to scroll back through your posts to find some. Generally when @jaynie says someone's good, they are.

Thank you, @@@derangedvisions
