Nimue, the Lady of the Lake

A personal version of this character from the Arthurian Legends.


I've been sick all night so I couldn't do anything but to stay at home for the New Year's Eve… I felt so frustrated that I spent all my night painting something personal (I had not done this for quite a long time ^^' )

This is also a pretext to try some new custom brushes I made… and to experiment with abstract + "realism"

Photoshop CS3
Wacom intuos 3A4
7 or 8 hours
No reference used

Inspired by Ewa Karpinska, Gustav Klimt and Odilon Redon art.

If you don't know Ewa Karpinska, you should REALLY check her artworks out ! She's an amazing painter who has a very unique way to use watercolours !

_____________________________


:star: Brushes used for this painting (you can use them but PLEASE credit me ;) These are for PHOTOSHOP CS3)

:star:If you don't have photoshop CS3, you can recreate all those brushes using my Nimue Custom Brushes Tutorial

:star: Wallpaper pack

:star: Details

:star: Animated WIP

Wallpaper coming soon on my other account (I'll update my journal with it)
