Thanks. Although my major was painting, I didn't paint for three years. Recently I was thinking about making one.

Beautiful . Is it hand drawn or edited by computer?

Sheloize In reply to hinastarr [2011-10-28 21:40:39 +0000 UTC]

Thanks. It is hand-drawn. I took a photo with my digital camera and edited on Photoshop to correct the values and contrast, so they will look similar to the original drawing.

The beauty and magnificence in the tiny anisotropies of the Cosmic Microwave Background, which has drawn the COBE satelite, pales in comparison to perfection and excellent detail of this majestic drawing.
And to think that the universe has taken 14.700 millions years for draw it!!!

You are making me want to change the title of this drawing to "Anisotropy".

Codinas In reply to Sheloize [2011-10-28 12:01:41 +0000 UTC]

And it's almost as big as the universe (45 x 61 cm).
One of the things we like most is its terribly difficult blur background.

This is just amazing work! The way you set the background to a blur and the level of shading on the garment just makes me see it as being made of silk. This is one of the most realistic portraits I have ever seen!
