Klementina (painting)

Santa came early for *Winzer this year just because she's that awesome. So here's Klementina in all her fluorescent glory. Those yellows and oranges were so much fun to paint. I think she fits the sunset nicely, too. Merry Christmas, Winz! Hope you like it. If you want an unwatermarked version just ask.

Sketching this wasn't supposed to kick my ass, but it did give me some trouble due to a bit of spontaneous art block. I figured out that the best way to beat that kind of thing was to go try drawing something I really can't - namely, people. So after a big human-painting-fail I came back to this and realized that it wasn't so hard after all. After that everything went smoothly.

Critique not desired.
