Description

This sweet lady found herself far too beautiful to die and be forgotten. So she cheated death to stay young and beautiful forever. ...or so she thought.

Actually, it's just a close-up of a much larger painting. But honestly, I have no idea when or if I ever finish the whole thing. The face is the most interesting part anyway...

I hope she looks a bit disgusting XD~

the way you paint hte hair is outstanding! like the concept too - creepy portrait. but what is a bit odd is that it seems like her face is of different colour from her neck

@Kay: You are right about the neck oO. Didn't want it to take focus from the face, but I will try to adjust the colors to make it look more natural.

@razpa: I do agree, that "something's not quite right", but I didn't manage to correct it.
Personally, I think it's because the left pupil seems off.
But then again - I do think it adds a bit to the 'creepy effect' - as if this eye is dead and can't be controlled anymore. That's why I didn't bother to change it ^^'

Thanks everyone for your nice feedback. It means a lot to me

This story reminds me of "The Portrait of Dorian Gray". The marks of "oldness" are really well rendered. congrats
