Artist's Comments

Hot, it's so very hot. While the rest of the world is covered with snow in the spirit of white christmas. Here in Adelaide, it is bathed in a burning 36 degrees heat and sunshine, even the beach is scorching...I yearn for the soft cool breeze of spring.

This painting consist of many of my "first times" :
First time drawing scenery with no reference...i think i took longer drawing the scenery than the girl...
First time I didn't use many layers
First time i made my own custum brushes for texture
First time i mixed colours, and picked much more saturated colours

It was wonderful experience playing around wiith all those colours and brushes! Hope you guys like it!

Pose refrenced use for the girl from a tiny picture in a magazine

the texture and colors are amazing! i love how the yellow flowers that grow on the grass are also in her hands and hair-- and the butterflies were a lovely touch :heart: to be able to digitally paint this wonderful piece without that many layers is a great accomplishment! great job!
