Description

Restrictions can be expanding, bonds can be liberating, freedom can be dependent. Carpe diem.

Corel Painter 9, Wacom Intuos, 5 days. (And I don't even want to know how many of those were spent on the damn chains. :E)

Ah this is beautiful!
The multiple light sources work really well. At first I couldn't find where the pink light was coming from, but then I saw the tree with the little lights in it and it made sense :)
The blue light from the top looks awesome together with the warmer lights.
I'm wondering why you put an orange-ish glow around her body? It does make her pop out a bit more I think :).
Also I wonder which brushes you used in Painter for this. The only painter brush I found that I like is the simple water brush, but I'm sure there must be more painter brushes which I like :p
Ah well, this is a very nice image. Did you create it for yourself (like to put in a portfolio) or for a client? :)

love
