I don't really know how long this took me. I spent a good portion of today, yesterday, and the day before that on it. But a lot of that time was pondering how the hell does her nose go. I tried to blend some realistic looking hair into the background, as the photo I was referencing did the same.

The earrings took me longer than I'd care to admit, but you can tell they aren't perfect. I hope that all this practice with portraits of real people will make me better at "creating" people. I have so many ideas, but I just don't know how to go about them without references of real people!

I kind of wish I had done a step-by-step on her earrings though, because the one you see in full looks pretty good. Maybe I'll go back and do a step-by-step? Probably not.
