This one was sketched, scanned, and manipulated with paint shop pro...her hair kind of reminds me of leaves.

Oooh, those eyes! They're completely mesmorizing. The hair looks really nifty, too. Good job!

:-) Nadine Gruly replies: "I am in the process of posting another version of this pic (ticket pending) using a smudge brush to soften the look of the hair and I made a change to her eyes as well...I hope you will visit again to see the new version and thanks for your nice comments. 2"

Very earthy indeed, the rough look to her hair just makes her look like a woman of the woods.

I particularly like the hair in this one, the shape is very pleasing. The colors in this one aren't quite as vibrant as some of your others, though... and I love your vibrant use of color. 2

:-) Nadine Gruly replies: "To me color is a very important aspect that creates atmosphere and expresses emotion.The colors in this are a little more somber because she was a more serious character that I imagined. My preference for color is that they be strong and rather bold. Generally, I dislike using pastels, but thats just me =)."
