    The thumbnail genuinely had me thinking that it was a photo of a dress and the art you were sharing was that you made the dress. You must have just absolutely nailed the lighting and proportions enough that when the image is small enough to conceal the soft edges and less detailed areas, my eye just accepted it

      Thank you! It’s a byproduct of staying very close to the reference.

      Nope, I painted it myself from a reference. The timelapse is at the link if you care to look.

      it’s not. it is digital. likely used a tablet like apple or android.

      it’s quite lovely and has strong impressionist motivation. the face itself is a bit too detailed to fit a full impressionist style, but it kind of adds to the charm of being “seen” by the art.

      good job.
