Hooray, I finished my first digital painting! Not bad for an elderly Wacom tablet --not very pressure-sensitive --and Photoshop 5.5. This is Iphis, knight in shining armor on a white horse, who is also a lesbian. And a disciple of Isis.
Worked directly over my pencils and left some of the rough pencil texture underneath.
The border I designed after an illuminated manuscript, a while back.
YAAAAAY, it is AWESOME. god, this is meant to be your FIRST digital painting? Let me hate you ~instant fav, as I already expected~ ...by the way, everything on it looks wondeerful, but the best thing about it is the way you did the horse. ....man, this lady is too cool, seriously..
This is nice. I like the angle of the pose. It is all very well rendered. The thick black outline surprisingly works well in this, giving it a real medieval feel. The expression and face is good too.
I did a digital painting of a similar female knight ('The Knight is Young' [link] ), but I like yours better.

Thanks a lot! With the outline I was thinking Alphonse Mucha, or stained glass; I'm glad it was effective. Your stuff is very pretty and painstaking! I used reference as a jumping-off point when I did the original pencil sketch for this painting (myself as a child riding bareback on my old swaybacked pony, in this case ).
I'd like to show you some awesome nature related work from more or less unknown artists which deserve more attention - this is a must see, you won't regret it!!!
Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
I'm a lover of visual impacts. I like brilliant colors and shapes. And I decided to collect a whole stack of deviations that reflect that taste. These pieces showcased below deserve every bit of publicity you can give them. x)P
