This painting's completed - for now anyway. It didn't turn out quite the way I expected. I wanted to use more washes and transparent layers, but my planning wasn't so good and the underpainting was too rough. It's not very big - about 11" by 15". This of course is oil on canvas.
I'm not too crazy about the title. She looks more like a peasant than a queen. Although it is not meant to be Tolkien's character, this painting was inspired by Éowyn from
Return of The King.You can click on the label below to see the painting in it's various stages.
That is really really fine, anthony. I know it's a tremendous amount of work, but you should do these more often.
Thanks Ben. I'm wanting to have several done before the end of the year. hope it works out
Gorgeous!! Great colours.
Check out the "grandpa" quentin I just posted....
My first impression was "Joan of Arc" when I saw the painting. While queen doesn't pop into my mind I think it's a very fine painting. (And why Joan of Arc popping to mind is beyond me.)
Thanks Eric! I'll check it out
thanks JPT, and your not the only one who thought Joan of Arc. I've had several people mention that to me. I was thinking of calling it "Courage"or something along those lines. kind of symbolic maybe.
I might post this question out on the blog - what would be a good title?
I have to say it looks pretty darn good to me.
Hey thanks Michael!
