More art nouveau seasons, although it could be argued that Mucha made further versions superflous.

I think of Summer as languid and lazy. Whereas Autumn dances wildly in the first cold winds of the season, Summer takes naps in the shade.

Line drawing, color in Corel Painter and Photoshop.

Beautiful. I love the pose and the Art Nouveau style.

Oh, nice colors!
The one thing that bothers me a bit in this one is the green frame though. It’s way too ’generated’, to fit in well with the rest.
But hey, I like the rest. A lot. Good job!

:-) Dawn D Davidson replies: "Hmmm. Well, the intent was to make it consistent in style with what I had going on with the Autumn pic, but maybe I should tone down the color some. Thanks for the feedback!"

Languid and lazy is right! She looks as tough she’s just waking up from a sweet little snooze in the sun!
