    Nice texture work! Especially like the right side.

  • mimi yoon replied

    thanks much, tama… only texture is the pattern overlay… right side is pretty much painted brush strokes… : )

  • mimi yoon replied

    hi tama…
    please come back and take a look at it without the overlay…

    A gorgeous, soft, dreamy version of the original. :-)

  • mimi yoon replied

    i paint without thinking many times…. seriously i had no direction with this piece and still uncertain about it…. thank you for your kind words, jennifer… : )

  • Petra Pinn

    they are both beautiful, but I like this (with the tamed hair) even better, looks more mysterious with the overlay (did you add that in photoshop?), i love the other one too, she looks like she is surrounded by smoke, stunning!!

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you so much for your kind compliments, petra… they mean a great deal to me…. : )

  • Tama Blough

    I like the original too – I wasn’t sure if you had used actual paint paint or digital paint – lol. I might like it better without the swirly texture in that case.

  • mimi yoon replied

    i do like it better without the swirls too… i think…. but i can have them both ways… one on canvas as shown on the right and one out of computer with the swirls… but the original as shown on the previous page is gone… pooffed... : ) thanx tama…
    p.s. what’s on the right is all hand painted…

    Excellent Mimi, I love the almost smoke haze and the textures.

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you so dearly, wayne… you’re so~ sweet… : )

  • smallfox

    smallfox

    Wonderful image! I think it looks good both ways. It looks a little more serious without the overlay; the overlay is a beautiful addition, though, that softens the picture, increases the sensuousness. Fantastic, either way! Brilliant work, Mimi!

  • mimi yoon replied

    thank you very kindly for your insightful comment… loved reading it and truly appreciate your compliments, smallfox… : )

    Ohh, you already know I liked the “before”, now I also like the after1 and after2, the steps you show us are so so intriguing, fascinating and elegant, perhaps that is the Acropolis behind her? Love the pattern, love the fact you paint and design, design as you paint as you design… cool!
