Snow Elf

I came across the reference to this a while back and only just now got around to using it. I really like Bianca's pose in this. It look peaceful yet still sexy.

Beach Elf

After the last piece I felt like doing another nude.Water is not my strong point, but I try. You probably can't see it but she does have a pointy ear.You can see the reference here.

Forest Elf

I felt like trying a nude and came across the reference for this on DeviantArt. I've added some brightness and contrast to the original image, I found it to be a little on the dull side. I've intentionally left this one rough so you can tell something's been done. I pulled the hair back from her face and created elfish ears and changed the hair colour. Other then that, I left the rest the same.

Bearded Iris

Now these colours I love, they are me. If I could get away with it, I'd do my bedroom in these colours, but, I rent so that's out. I got bored with this one towards the end and put it off to work on Passion. I only had the central petal to complete and managed to hold enough interest to complete this piece. I was going to left the background black, but then I couldn't tell where the flower started and ended so I changed it to a dark smoky blue. I think it looks better. Now I must find something else to work on.

Passion

I've had the reference to this one sitting on my computer for a over a year now. I felt like a break from the flower I was currently doing and decided to work on this one for a while. This was pretty much a quicky from me. Once started it only took two days to complete.
