"Sweet as fresh dew on rose petals, Shafallia waits at the palace gardens for the King. Is she sastisfied with just being his mistress or is there more she desires...Just one look into those cunning green eyes should be answer enough..."


Ok...so I guess all I had to do was complain that I had no inspiration...for the inspiration bug to bit me in the butt. This was an insane amount of detail and I tried to complete it as quickly as possible, which still took me roughly 7ish hours to complete. I actually thought I finished her quicker but looking at the clock is telling me that I lost track of time. *grin* Not like "that" hasn't happen before. Sometimes I can really loose myself when I do a project like this. Its actually quite relaxing, to just focus on the little details and slowly create something much larger.

I am so pleased with myself on this one. Maybe I'm parcial to red heads tho--"evilgrin" since I am one. Also I am pleased that I have apparently found my "niche" in painting styles. Thank god for Painter8 or I would still be in the stone ages of digital art.

Hope you enjoy Shafala
Just one word of warning though...
I wouldn't venture too far into that garden with her...
