You are very accomplished in using digital painting.Don't know the photo, but one feels that there is a real person behind this portrait. My only negative comment is the wrinkles in her neck seem odd for someone so young. Excellent job.

    Thank you very much for your kind comments. The girl in the painting is a friend how she looked 10 years ago. I think the white blouse is a school uniform. :o)
Comment from Sange


You are so kind to do this for your friend.
You did an incredible job on her facial features, eyes, nose, teeth.
It's impressive how you do this all digitally.
Really fine work here Cleo!

Lovely work here, portraits ain't easy and you done well. Nice use of suttle and soft tones. Colours chosen work well and a nice background without being too distracting, well done

How nice that you could do this for your friend, and I am sure she really like the result. It is a lovely portrait, and I like so much the textures and colors of the background.

You have also brought out the fine textures of the hair and the light in the eyes. Your brush work is always very good, and you know how to use high lights correct as well.

The format and framing is perfect and the girl is well placed on the canvas. A truly lovely and well done digital portrait Cleo.

You are really talented Cleo! Your portraits of animals are always so realistic and now I can see that goes for your portraits of people too. This looks as realistic as a photograph. The work you did on her eyes brings life to her face and I think you did a great job on her teeth, which I think is a difficult thing to get right.

    Thank you very much for your encouraging review. You are right. Eyes and teeth are the most difficult in any portrait, people and animals alike. Just as in photography. :o)
Comment from Kevin Williams


This a great painting. Very impress with it. Skin tone, facial features and hair looks realistic. Congrats on winning. This is definitely well deserving of 1st place.

Beautiful digital art portrait of this pretty young girl, Cleo, and how lovely that you could do this for her mother after they had lost all the other photographs. Excellent choice of colours. I like how you've shown the light on her hair and the catch light in her eyes. Lovely digital painting and I'm sure your friend was delighted with this. Suzanne

WOW awesome recovery and certainly a big gift for the family. Excellent detail work - I love to see your working lines in the big version as they emerge with the smaller one and become the perfect skin color and light, perfect detail work, she really is born again on this painting - thanks for sharing

She is a pretty girl and I'm sure she is happy with your hard work in re-creating her damaged photo. Excellent job on her eyes, I know that's hard to do.
