Fun portrait of one of my wife's characters, Sera.
...man spends two hours with the oil brushes in Painter, thinks he's the next Sargent...

A Bedouin Arab - Master Study

A study of John Singer Sargent's "A Bedouin Arab".
Done in Painter 9, about 45 minutes. One layer, with no ctrl+z or eraser, one brush (Oil Brushes - Bristle Brush) on default setting.
I feel kinda bad for trying to study this, actually. I feel like I don't do it enough justice. But at least I'm trying, eh?
