3. so far so good....

still have some work to do...plus the varnish and then the frame...the scan came out blurry and a little faded...in person the colors are quite vibrant and festive...

7. no

i've done a few...but the last real attempt at paint was maybe 13 years ago with oils as my primary medium...this one is with acrylics...

8. and yes this was not done from a photo

this one is strictly imagination....

but if i had my way i would work from live models...that is the best way...
good photos are the second choice...

and the way i'm doing it now is the process of last resort....but i'm happy that it's coming out as nice as it is...like i said it has a long way to go...

9. I love the detail...

and the colors are fantastic.

Not that I'm an art expert or anything. It's visually stunning to me.
