New painting. I was having trouble finding inspiration, when I took a page from Batman. take what you're afraid of and make use of it.
This is from a digital photo, so the colors are a little off, and it needs sharpening in a few places, but otherwise, it's pretty much as I painted it, I think.
I bet it changes on different monitors, though. Faugh. Heh.
Anyway. I worked probably about 20 hrs or so on this, I'd think, which is really neither here nor there, but I figured I'd put that out there.
PLEASE COMMENT if you (actually) FAVE. Heehee. Thank you.
I might sell her, if I can find anyone who would actually want her.
I don't know why, can't put my finger on it, but it's entrancing.

Cool, I love all the subtle colors in this painting. That's a hard effect for me to achieve with paint! Really love the different colors blended into her skin.

I'm hoping to increase the glowy in my next piece without going overboard, since I'm actually painting a goddess.
