This is my first painting. It took about 45 minutes to draw and 45 minutes to paint and probably another 45 minutes of fiddling with digital filters. The whole thing is only about 1.75"x1.75". I used the girl with the pearl earring as a reference because I have loved that painting ever since I saw it in a book many years ago.
Next, I intend to paint a larger, 5"x5", version.
