Description

ATTENTION, LOOOONG COMMENT! XD

Um, I probably should have been working on my other projects, but I Really needed to practise with Photoshop and I SO got carried away...^^; This is my first time using shadows and brushes -those petty things XDD- and I have probably made a gazillion mistakes, but I'm trying to learn....:D Slowly.....^^; So forgive me.

Anywho, to the pic: The ancient Egyptian lady is Queen Ankhesenamen (ca. 1348–after 1324 B.C.) of the 18th dynasty, wife and half-sister of the Boy-King, Pharaoh Tutankhamen. She is portrayed reading a letter from her husband and brother in their palace, under the watchful eye of the goddess Isis.

I really like Ankesenamen because of her sad story and because, when compared to her husband and parents (Pharaoh Akhenaten and Queen Nefertiti), who are among the most famous rulers of Egypt, she is largely neglected. :D More information on Ankhesenamen can be found here ~> [link]

A big fat THANKS to :iconnightfalldream: for her Awesome tutorial! You rock, siz! :D :glomp:

Tools: 3H and 2B pencils for the scetch, Adobe Photoshop CS2 for the colouring, some book as referance on how to draw Isis.... ^^;
Mood: Melancholic-Dreamy
Music: Through the eyes of a child - Reamonn :D

Very Beatiful Work!:clap::heart::love:

Where you've seen this scenario? It is very curious, but in the dream that I had there was a scene very similar. The bank where she is sitting, and the landscape behind. ^^
