Artist's Comments

Another day of exam preparations spent on something completely different.. I wanted to practice skin and personality, and when I found a photo of this lady on an old back-up disk, I had to try to paint her!

I completely neglected the hair and background, but this was just supposed to be a quick skin study..

Texture by =ArtOfDecay-Stock

I don't know where the reference photo was from, let me know if you recognize it. :)

Edit:

I turned this into a tutorial on how to draw wrinkly old people. You can find it here: [link]

Thank you, I am trying to get better at photorealism. :)

Woh!!
That's great.
How do you achieve all of the small irregularities in the skin. Do you start off with some textures or particular brush to get this subtle pattern?
:)
Love the expression.

amazing work.
I can't wait to see your skin tutorial.
For a moment I thought to myself...that isn't a painting that's a picture, then, I realized, oh wait that's Edana...she can paint stuff that realistic.
Nice work.
