Description This painting is a early Christmas gift for my friend Nakomiah.

I will be giving it to her this weekend- hopefully it will be dry by then.


I apologize to all my friends for not being able to respond to their notes and comments. I have been very busy with work lately, so I have not been able to spend as much time on dA,

I will be off this coming week, and I plan to respond and comment on all of my friends work.


Comments are appreciated.

Beautiful work! The colors blend very well but also contrast strikingly, and you're use of lighting is amazing. I also love how you painted this on six separate canvases instead of one. Your friend will be very happy to get this.

Great work my friend! It's very beautiful, but I'm a bit too conservative for that amount of reds, I'm afraid

Ravenhaven In reply to RandomSearcher [2009-12-01 01:42:31 +0000 UTC]

Thanks my friend.

Yes, the limited use of reds and grays, was a challenge. But that is what my friend Nakomiah requested, so I had to limit myself to those hues.

I did have fun painting this.

Ravenhaven In reply to Veronika-Art [2009-11-29 01:30:08 +0000 UTC]

Yes, it is done on six 8X10 canvases.

That is what Nakomiah requested the painting be done.
