Description Katniss from the hunger games in her stunning interview dress. I have seen this one done so many times but no one ever did it in the excessive amount of jewels I imagined when explained in the book.
After doing this I know why. I must have been crazy to want to hand paint that many jewels!

A5 took me 1/2 to draw and 3 days to paint. salt used for patten in back ground.
watercolour, salt and gold pencil.

I do like to hear what you think but just warning you, for every fault you can pick I can see a hundred more so please don't point out anything stupid I already know.

I think it was a ribbon braided in rather than red highlights but I have lent out my copy to someone so I cant check :/

I think this is the most acurate drawing of her outfit I've ever seen. I never understood why people didn't draw it the way it was described, but I now can see that drawing those would be quite the chore. Love it! It's really amazingly good.

as everyone else said, the dress is fantastic! but take care of the head shape. she's a little flat on top. but other than that, i absolutely adore the picture. the dress is amazing, and the picture behind her is very well done.
