Samurai


Painted in Photoshop. Samurai geisha after a sneak attack at dawn. I painted this for the model that posed for me and finished it this past October, but was never really satisfied. So I did something I rarely do and I went back to it and reworked the color, adjusted the blood splatters, added much more detail to the scarf (specifically adding patterns), added texture to the snow, and added foreground elements to frame the image. I'm much more satisfied with this version.
