Description I named this Self Control because, as you can see, she is making herself disappear.


Thank you for Daily Deviation #4!

Let me explain to all those here today who don't know my work... My style is half photo manipulation, half painting. The final output is meant to look like the subject in the original image. In this case, this was a commissioned piece given to me by a photographer meant to be a portfolio piece for the model.

Have you ever considered that independence is so appealing for you because you actually never had the chance to taste it by yourself?The explanation is less than a thought,less than a feeling,it's a simple word. Curiosity...

Curiosity is a good guess.

Yes,it would be if it was,but it's not a guess.You may not believe me now,but eventually you will reach a point to consider things a little more deeply than just guessing them.When you reach it,truthfully, it won't be any longer a problem for you to understand why simple things like independence look appealing.
I hope you understand me,and i wish you good luck to"the journey for the truth".


P.S.I like your drawing style,keep it up (someday I will draw like you)

This is beautiful. I love the contrasting color
The flow of the colors along with the lighting just looks magnificent

Oh in relation to the other things in your comment..
I think it seems that those of us today who are dependent on other elements around us, to get through our days, are indulged in those elements to the point where those who aren't...are almost fascinating in a way because they still manage to get by so easily.

I for one seem to get by on my own, so I am the opposite...I wish to have more elements towards what gets me through the days

Kakitiss [2008-08-10 07:12:32 +0000 UTC]

This is gorgeous and a brilliantly executed concept!

I only have one thing to say- the outfit, her face and hair, and the cloth are all perfectly done and look amazingly real, however her waist doesn't. Humans have a rib cage which prevents the waist from curving directly in after the breasts like you've drawn it- if you were to give her a rib cage it would be perfect!

As usual I think your work is wonderful. I only have one tiny point of critique and that's that her waist looks a little unnatural but she does look ultra feminine!

The colour has taken my fancy

As a general rule, man is a covetous animal. People want what they don't have, regardless of whether it better suits them, or not.

We're just stupid like that. XD

On an unrelated note, nice work with the pink in this one. It worked out quite well. Doesn't seem to like me so much as a color, but it's always nice to see someone else who can make it work!
