Description IT IS DONE!
I have been working on this for months (though most of the work happened over the past week) - I wanted to make something that was just purely beautiful. You may read whatever you like into that and what it says about me...all I have to say is that of all the works in my collection, this is now my pride and joy.
That having been said, I do welcome comments, critical and otherwise. The medium is gouache (pronounced 'gwash') with a little bit of black acrylic to fix up splotches on the background. There was also some pen and pencil involved as sketchwork, but that's no longer apparent.

I use Apophysis for those three (and most fractals in my gallery). For the first deviations I use Paint Shop Pro, for the ones in the middle Photoshop, and for the last ones GIMP (free software, almost as good as PS).

What inspire you to do this character?

Good question....My main inspiration was to create something as beautiful as I could - no symbolism or realism or rules to bog it down. A lot of my fantasy work involves tapering lines and angular figures, and I love the way things look when rendered in chrome. Isis was the first name that came to me. I think it's a beautifull name, and it suited her so perfectly I had to give it to her. I had heard or read somewhere that Isis was the Egyptian goddess of beauty, although after having done some research I'm considering renaming this piece 'Medusa', another mythological female archetype in which I have great interest.

I prefer the name Isis. I was interested in making fantasy art, but got interested in other styles...

search a website called 'elfwood', it's like DA but only fantasy.
