Artist's Comments

I painted this from a photograph of Natalie Portman just for practice.

Corel Painter:
used a pencil to sketch the outline and main features first, then used mostly Bristle Oils 20 brush for the rest of the job

*Edit*

A request to see the intial sketch... [link]

i have always been a little skeptical of corel but this is really a wonderful piece
i have seen so man corel paintings that just look like photoshop filters but this one really tips the scales in the other direction.
i love how you can see the brushstrokes and the texture in the background and then the sharper, detailed features in the face.
really well done.
