Description

This is actually a portrait of my favorite ( =only) little sister - a bit late birthday present, but still HAPPY BIRTHDAY BELLA :hug:

Continuing with portrait practice... Took me about a day, I used a reference picture of my sister and a few brushes for the vines and the background. I figured I can paint the basics quickly, but I get stuck later, when it comes to details and using my imagination... I sometimes feel like all I'm doing is a collection of cliches.

brushes used:
background: celtic brushes from [link]

vines: :iconspiritsighs:

And of course all comments and suggestions are still very welcome :)

The lips would be best made glossy with patched highlights instead of brushed. The toning over from lips to skin could need a smooth blur :O
