This is the second in a series I'm working on at the moment about natural poisons. Aconitum, or Monkshood. was the poison that Romeo used to kill himself with when he thought that Juliet was indeed dead. The painting is based on this.

The painting is done so far in Photoshop and I'd love to get some critique and suggestions :)

Found that the girl's head was waay too small, did more to the hair, upped the saturation

Jumped on bandwagon and painted one of those bottle things, they're pretty. And this is where I am now!

This is pretty inspiring as well.
