In Need of Overcompensation
Thursday, February 18, 2010 at 9:51 AM

I discovered this artist by chance, its her tutorials I've been referring to to complete my, uh, painting. What I initially planned to be a morbid retouching of a photo is now becoming something else, definitely not me anymore, because I just found how fun it is to paint in Photoshop. Here's some of her artpieces that I really liked. We'll start with something... subtle.



If you head over to her site, you can see her other works as well as closeup shots of this piece. Then you'll see the details in the reflection, her dress, and her dismal face.


I like this one so much because it represents what I've always envisioned as the perfect portrait, that balances between realism and a touch of fantasy. You can tell its a painting, sure, but its so real it might probably be based on someone. I never knew what it took to draw nice, textured and lively lips. Then I discovered how to give eyes shape, then working with skin colours and whatnot. And here everything is so effortlessly orchestrated. For the record, killer lips I say.

I hope that gave you a shock, I really do.

I'm gonna get back to my life now, its so happening I can't sleep HAH. Wow. Someone please give me a slap, I think I need one. Or maybe you can spar with me, I so wanna spar. Then after that I will go into my three part apology hahahhaha. Only the privileged will know where that's from.

Life's too short to exist go out and get noticed.
