New Art!

I'm going to list it in my ebay store this weekend when I have time. I still haven't finished grape fairy yet...I'm putting it off until I feel like oil painting again. Lately I've been in a digital mood.

That is just breath taking :)
I should ask you..what do you use to make the darker part of the skin tones?? I cant figure it out. Ive tried black, Ive tried brown, Ive even tried blue! Grr. It all just looks horrible and mucky when I try!

Thanks Nedda :)I use mostly burnt umber mixed with a little burnt sienna, some alizarin crimson, and yellow. I mix a bunch of that up than take a little of it and mix it with some white for a dark/med skin tone...sometimes I have to add some more red or yellow at that point, then I take a little of that mix and add more white to it for my lighter skin tones.

Gorgeous!! Lovely skin tones and great composition-she looks very alluring.

Thanks David :) I relied pretty heavy on a photo ref for this one so I can't take all the credit for the composition.
