A new source of inspiration.

As many of you may know, I paddle around (as opposed to surfing... I was born in the bush, so any kind of surfing just seems unnatural to me) on Deviantart to post my work, and see what others in the global art world ar up to.  Anyway.... paddling around one day and I found Greta Tuckute, a photographer that does beautiful portraits.. Greta's portrait photography is amazing, but what is really amazing id that Greta is only 17 years old..

She has also consented to let me use her work as reference materials for portraits, so today I took one of her photographs and painted a portrait from it.

Here is her original work;

and here is Greta on Deviantart... gretatu.deviantart.com., and her website http://www.gretatu.com/
now for my rendition....


hope you like it
all the best
Pete
