This was supposed to be a reference image, but I thought I would just let the photo and the post production work I did on it speak for itself. I quite enjoy this one. I may post more in the future.

Here is the first real portrait of Sierra. It’s oil on board. 22 X 30 or something along those lines. I plan on posting up a process post so you can see the progression.

Here is another long study of Sierra. I deviated from the reference a bit because it didn’t work within the composition. But I think the outcome is better for it.
