'Working Girl, Three Faces of a Modern American Venus', Vintage

Venus, Face #3. A digital interpretation of one
of the most beautiful faces ever created,
Botticelli’s ‘Venus’, from ‘Botticelli’s Ladies’, by
Norval Arbogast. I tryed to keep the features as
close to the original painting as possible, but
made the hair very ‘Mucha-esque and super
saturated the color. I also hardened the eyes
and added the adornments of her profession.
She’s seen the harder side of life, but the
natural beauty shines through. I hope you
share this beautiful face with your family
and friends.

    YOU HAVE A FABULOUS FOLIO!!
    What program do you recommend to paint?

  • Norval Arbogast replied 24 days ago

    Thank you, I didn’t use a paint program, just plain ole photoshop, I’m just learning. The program I used for this is 5.5, thats because i’m on and old windows ninty-eight. If you’re on a newer computer, the new photoshops will do a lot more stuff and faster. I still mouse draw, haven’t been able to afford one of the new digital tablets. Still on my wish list :-).
