"Anne"

[Alex]

Sculptor is Jun-Sik Ahn.
Slight modification to the original sculpt : the tricorn was tilted in order to show more of the forehead and the overlying bandana.
Painted mostly with Golden Soflat acrylic paints. Combination of matte (for the most part) and satin finish depending on the material depicted. Non metallic and true metallics as well.
She represents the figure I am the most happy about since I usually have a feeling of "I could have painted that thing or that part better" once I called it finished.

That is absolutely stunning and definitely deserves to be described as "Fine Art".

Is the necklace a separate piece, or part of the cast?

Absolutely beautiful in every respect, you have made this lady stunning, her eyes, her lips, her complexion and the effects and freehand on the clothing and effects on the equipment bring this piece into the masterpiece bracket.

She's gorgeous! Some serious intricate paint work, but those eyes, those turquoise eyes, they’re awesome! She looks rather seductive, sheer beauty.


I’d say you reached your goal, you couldn’t do anything better than this, IMHO, Alex.

Thanks Steve ! I agree. Eyes are imho very important to get 'right' when painting busts.. it can make or break a paint job.. even though I did most of the skin at the beginning of this work, eyes were done last.
