Here is another entry to Karin Jurick's Different Strokes from Different Folks. The statue is a companion to Diana, and I chose to place her in front of Diana's Temple. I now see why this is called a challenge, working all in one "color" on the figure and trying to get the tones just right is definitely a challenge. I had to take several photos of the painting and still didn't get the exact match. The reds came out too strong in the photo, but changing that made too much of a difference in the rest of the picture. Oh, well, like I said, "it's a challenge!"
You did a fantastic job getting the tones right! This is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteGreat, Ann! Like the addition of the temple and setting!
