Title: Queen of Seduction
Name: Regan Bothma
Country: South Africa
Software: Photoshop
Hi there, this a piece I have been working on for a while, I Started it off as a conceptual
Sketch (on paper) and that went from her holding a glass of wine …being the queen of seduction in a more “I want to
Seduce you “kinda way, to her current state where she is now letting a butterfly rest on her hand. This shows her oneness with nature and letting her true beauty shine through! Which I found as I went along in the painting was the way to depict her. The colours that complement were the background and the cloth. The blonde hair required a lot of detail, I wanted to create a enriched colour palette of colours that would range from her pink cheeks through to her hair and skin tones that have a variety of colours !I also added little things to enhance the mood like her hair lifting in the slight breeze and fire flys in the background to create a mystical feel .
The true meaning behind this piece is to seduce the viewer with her true beauty !!
She is a fictitious character !
I did take lots of photos of my own hand to
See finer creases etc for closer details !
Hope you enjoy, comments more than welcome thanx
