Artist's Comments

This is for Christina Davis's "Halloween Spooktacular" artshow. Lol I know Halloween is a ways off but everything has to be in by the 1st :)
I was trying to get ideas for my piece when I was looking through an older issue of Gothic Beauty and came across a lovely picture in an article about Eternal Love clothing. Which inspired this.

Oooh, this is lovely. The color choices (specifically the purple and orange), while not intuitive really work well together in this. I like it a lot. :)

Good luck with that art show!

Good luck! :D

Cheer up and dry your damp eyes
and tell me when it rains
And I'll blend up that rainbow above you
and shoot it through your veins

Ahh, that's very nice and dark :D
Love the background and color choice. I don't think you could ever go wrong with those.
And here's some critique: the neck should either be a little bit thinner or longer. The hands are too small, but despite that they're quite well drawn (I'm pointing it out 'cause hands are one of the hardest things to draw correctly), I think her (right) arm seems kind of thin too. Overall, these are all proportion issues, but I'm sure you'll get them right eventually. :)
Here's a link to a tutorial that might be of help: [link]

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you’re a mile away and you have their shoes.

Thanks :) I had trouble with the hands, at least the one holding the mask, because of how it's positioned. Same with the neck. And thanks, that tutorial was helpful!
