Digital portrait.
(Painted from blank canvas in ArtRage, fine tuned in Photoshop)
Accidentally made in same day when idiot-politics here in Finland are trying to put on a law, that forbids smoking even in open air festivals.
People are calling them health-facists and talks about totalitarism instead of civilized democracy.
This is becoming a spare North-Korea, in case something would happen to the original one…
Welcome to Healthy Finland, life forbidden.
Disclaimer:
The model was outside having her cigarette, as smoking is already forbidden indoors.
She also secured that there are no asthmatics or such who could immediately get fatal disease by seeing smoke of tobacco closer from than 38 meters.
There were no innocent children witnessing this severe crime.

This painting is great, Maija! I love the look on her face and your description – so courageous and no-nonsense – not to mention the delightful irony that the background buildings, not the lady, look full of “tabagie”
stunning painting..
Excellent work – wonderful face

if they want to smoke then go for it.
