Celtic Queen of Artwanted. First I drew her with 2B and 4B pencils, scanned in VueScan, lightly colored in PS, then printed out, finished color work with colored pencils, scanned again, put in PS background, tweaked background with effects, JPegged it and posted it as finished first and sketch in "enlarged"

What an excellent picture of a loved AW member/friend... I LOVE her reaction!

Artist Reply: Thank you Olga, she is a beaut and many of us wonder what is going to be next on her site. Artwanted keeps me going through a tough time in my life--these comments pick up my spirits.

oh no way. you didn't??? I am.....I am....just sitting here...sniff...sniff, overwhelmed!!!!!! I look so exotic!!! You captured my smile, my shiny eyes that everyone tells me I have. wow. I look beautiful thanks to your skill. Now what on earth made you want to paint such a beautiful work and using my mug? hehehehe. Oh Bobba, I am so touched. This is the first portrait I've ever had someone else render of me.....I'm out of words...hugs..hugs..hugs

Artist Reply: You are just a perfect model for my intent of doing a sort of art noveau type drawing. I'm surprised more people haven't done portraits of you. You live and artistic life! You're comments are just so encouraging! xoxoxox

Truly fantastic. (I'll have to read the image info 6-7 times more to understand the complex process:-))) OMG! You were very busy...!!!

Artist Reply: Tried to write out the directions better, guess it sounds much harder than it actually is. I forget that you are native Spanish speaker because you are so articulate in English...btw....thanks for your apprecation of the drawing.
