Description
CHOW #176 - Venetian MasqueradeSqueezing in some time for me painting in and around all the stuff I still can't show you yet. This was a Venetian Masquerade ball topic, plus it had to be a self portrait (literally and in terms of subject matter). So I decided I like Alice in Wonderland and the Marie Antoinette style clothes, and ran with it. I won this round, too, just in time for my birthday.

About 9 hours, Photoshop CS4 and Intous 4.

I love how you did this! I love her mask especially, the inclusion of the rabbit's so creative.

What a gorgeous design, and I love the way you illustrate fabric! The cloak has the heaviness and plush of a crushed velvet, the skirt looks like polished cotton, and the sleeves hang like a light chiffon. I can certainly see why you won, your attention to detail and physics is incredible.

Love this look and the cape reminds me of little red riding hood. Very fairytale, if she was going to a ball she would be sure to pick up a handsome prince.

Wow... I have no idea why that didn't occur to me before, of COURSE she should be on a playing card! Thank you! I'm going to go noodle on this some more.

I love Alice in Wonderland but don't always love the art other people do with it in mind. I really like this though.

The rabbit is because the piece is based on Alice in Wonderland, so Alice is masquerading as the rabbit, etc.

your drawings always remember me on Cindy Sherman.
Because, it always seems a bit to be yourself? The face often looks like yours or has similar aspects

Well, this one had to be a self portrait, so it had to look like me

NoraBackArt In reply to JessiBeans [2009-12-14 18:14:11 +0000 UTC]
yes but you also have pics, in which I can see your face.
Is this always planned or does this happens from time to time by itself?
