The below images are 2 of the 3 commissioned by a client of his (now ex-) wife. Each was based on nude illustrations that he found, & I added her head to them. Although I did have some nudes of the lady herself, they were only for facial reference.
I really liked this project, as I had only done a few colored pencil nudes before. This forced me to look at the female nude in color, rather than breaking down the reference photos into black & white tones.
I am really happy with these illustrations; I thought I did well establishing her skin tones, her curves, etc. Almost the quintessential 'Naked Wife' in my portfolio.
Contact me with any comments or questions.
