SciFi and Fantasy Art Cahra, more or less by Emily Arnould


	I've been really getting into painting lately, and I decided that I'd like to do a portrait. My friend Lin suggested that I try and paint Cahra, Xicanti's wife, so that's what I've done! It's not a perfect representation of her - Cahra's face isn't so long, and her left eye isn't wonky - but I think it's fairly good, for a first attempt. Acrylic on 5x7 canvas board.

31 Jan 2000	Ashley Campbell	Loading... Very groovy! Looks just as good on the web! I think she turned out really good! The "wisps" and shading are really good. I love her hair style. Looks pretty much like how I saw her. Yousa need to teach me some painting!
1 Feb 2000	Bria	Loading... Great work Ems! I love getting to see how these characters look! ~*~Bria
1 Feb 2000	Lindsay Campbell	Loading... Heya Ems! Dang! Mesa not first! Well, I'll make up for that by giving you some tips I should really use myself when painting. Try blocking stuff in before you paint. Works out better that way for some reason. Still, very good! I still wanna see a pic of Xic in color sometime! ;p
2 Feb 2000	Ze Artiste ;-)	Loading... Thank ye fer the tips, Lini! What do you mean by the blocking, exactly? Taping off certain areas? Or just drawing it out first? I DO draw out the main outlines first, when I do faces, but I don't bother with details. Those got on after the first coat of paint is on. I'll TRY and do you one of Xic soon, but I don't know. I can never get his face right, and mesa no havin' de courage to be askin' other peeps to give it a tries! Bria: glad you like 'em! You haven't met Cahra yet, but you will soon. Me and Lini are just working on a message with her in it right now.
4 Feb 2000	Lucy Barabas	Loading... This is good. It is my favourite of your picture so far. I like the eyes, and the colors. Sorry that I can't say more, but I am not into pictures and so I can only comment on the effects they cause for me. I like it.
10 May 2001	L.S. Engler	Loading... wonderful shading and an alover wicked job on the facial features....why can't i get any of my acrylic blending to look this good? ^_^ She's very beautiful and has such strange, mystical eyes!!! I love it!
7 May 2002	Chelsey Eaton	Loading... oh she's so pretty! I love her eyes and her hair is gorgeous too! wonderful.
