Finally, a new illustration! =p

I drew this piece over the summer, but couldn't decide on a colour scheme for it. I was thinking green, but just wasn't "feeling it". So I let it wait... and wait... and wait. When I was looking at the enchanted visions site, I saw a theme called Shades of Blue, and it struck me - BLUE! That was my 'aha' moment, where I started envisioning a colour pallet for this drawing.

Unfortunately, when I did the skin (I usually start by doing the skin tone first) I did it WAYYYYY too red. So when I scanned it, I used a layer adjustment to de-redden the skin and also lighten it a bit. That's the only digital change I made.

The wings are amy brown -esque, though no references were used or copied. In fact, I generally don't use any visual references at all (like stock photos) because I get bored trying to copy them.

Anyway, I think I've blah blah'd enough here, so I hope you enjoy this painting :)
