[Art] Red Riding Hood - Pre-Colouring.

[moonvoice]

This also counts as my photo of the day.










I've done something quite unusual for me. Usually I put up pictures that I think most people can see in one go, to give an idea of the whole picture. It sacrifices a lot of details that I think people may appreciate. So while the picture above is that 'whole view' picture, here is a much larger version that actually shows the details, right down to the dots in the cloak.

Thank you for showing the detail. The spirals at the very bottom, behind the flowers,look especially time-consuming.

I'm in awe of the amount of time and effort you put into your art. I love that you provided a larger view so we can see all the details.

I can only imagine the hand cramping from all those details.

But, I totally think it was worth it! The picture is turning out nicely!

My hand is cramped just looking at it. And yet...how I love inking. What do you use? (For inking)

Holy wow. That's just...

You know what amazes me? Your rough sketch (which you are always so brave and kind to show us) is really basic. And I always think "Well, but she's just sketching and it's just a concept..." But no. You take that EXACT sketch and layer details on it, the same exact sketch, until it's something awesome.

That's why your work is so powerful. It's honest. You don't re-do or tweak or manipulate or trace or any of that crap...it's just this sketch that turns into an awesome multi-layered piece of art.

I really, really must buy an original. Owning all those layers atop that honest sketch would be very exciting.

And this is why the pointillism. Because you've got the mad skills. This is absolutely stunning. I can't wait to see it in color.

(Also, what sort of flowers are those?)

Oh man, my brain is just having a field day imagining the possible colour schemes. Weee!

Delicious.

Wow that's a lot of spirals... Wow, that's a lot of dots... Wow that's a huge amount of cross hatching... Fuck me, what the hell are you doing to yourself???

Gods I love it, but I wish it wasn't at the expense of you!

This is going to be so gorgeous when finished!

The details in your work are always spectacular, just another element of what fascinates me :D
