SciFi and Fantasy Art Crimson Gaze by Jen Dolan

After almost a year of having neither the time nor the motivation to work on artwork, I've finally managed to sit down and create a new piece. Hopefully, I will continue having a little bit of free time for artwork.

This one is inspired about halfway by a vampire roleplaying character of mine, and halfway by Melisandre, the Red Priestess, in the _A Song of Ice and Fire_ series by George R. R. Martin.

Photoshop 6.0 - touched up Jan 2006

2 May 2006	Psyche	Loading... Wow, Jen, what wonderful painting skills you have! I really like the androgyny of the character. Like, it could be a beautiful woman, but then again, it could also be a beautiful man, a la Armand. Your mastery of creating hair is truly astonishing. I wish I could offer some constructive criticism, but this piece is, mas far as I can see, flawless. Damn you!
