Afrodite

During the last post, I wrote about working on my second commission. It was actually an agreement made between my mother and me. And I burst into laughter after seeing how serious she looked when she said: "You draw a special artwork for my 50th birthday and we're quits with my giving birth to you." HAHAHAHAHA! She's the coolest mom ever!:)



"Afrodite"
11 ¾ “ x 16 ½“

I already had the blueprint of the piece laid out in my head to make her grand day golden. Unfortunately, due to some unexpected turn of events and mood swings, I came up with this that's entirely not a golden artwork material for a mother. In other words, I have to make a new one for her and Afrodite is now up for grabs. Enjoy the details everyone!



PS: I can still feel the tenderness of my fingers and back.:(

  8. Jeez Louise, Bjornik! I'm still trying to figure out how you get all the fine shading and detail with your pen and ink. Exquisite! She is gorgeous, and I'm just giddy over the steampunk-like touches.

    Mom must have had a heck of a time getting you out! ;)

  10. Thank you for your recent comment. Somehow, I have difficulty believing you would just draw a simple tree and ladder, are you kidding me?! I bet you couldn't do it if you tried. :) Can't wait to see what else you are dreaming up.

    Be well!
