Illustration Friday : Your Paradise

I made this a while back. Done in photoshop 7 with a wacom graphire 2 tablet.
Total time about 1hour. I used a reference to get the likeness of the girl down.
The image reminds me of a shampoo commercial on TV where the lady gets out of the shower and her hair is shining and she has a smile on her face like she is in "paradise."
Sorry that I did not update my blog. I was busy moving things around the house and I was also working on a web comic on drunkduck.com. Looks like I am not gonna finish the webcomic but I am coming up with another webcomic idea. A better one at that.

I created a group blog for anyone who is interested in joining me and making it happen.

Here is the new top page logo. I may have made it too big.
Click on the image to enlargre

The top image is a realistic looking type of brush in photoshop.
Click to enlarge the image then save the image on your computer.
Open up photoshop and open up the image is a new document.
Then select all (control+a) then go to the top and select.....
EDIT > DEFINE BRUSH.
Now name the brush whatever you want.
Then open up your brush options and adjust the spacing of the brush to something like 25 and lower.
Then add whatever other options that you add to your brushes.
After that save the brush preset so you do not loose your settings on the brush.
And happy painting.
