The green fairy or the green muse roams around the jungle of our minds, making herself known to us on rare occasions. Too many visits with her can be deadly...
My challenge with *richytruong this week was to illustrate the personification of the spirit Absinthe. Absinthe is a highly alcoholic beverage that have been abused/used by many famous artists, such as Van Gogh and Edgar Degas (and many more). I chose a jungle bg cuz ~FantasyAce posted a painting with a amazon/jungle bg on his blog and the palm fronds looked kickass to paint. >: D
I was really proud of this one and but then I got distracted by Asuka D: so I painted her [link] half way through this one... and now I'm so over this painting but I'm happy to have finished it. _______________________________________ painted in corel painter essentials 3 edited on photoshop elements 4
