Artwork: Spike Goes to the Museum

Title: Spike Meets an Art Enthusiast.
Rating: Not Worksafe (nudity, no danglies).
Medium: Digital painting done in Photoshop CS3.
Summary: Spike travels to the Victoria and Albert Museum where he meets an art enthusiast who wishes for him to imitate the pose from Boucher's portrait of Louise O' Murphy (which is not in the Victoria and Albert Museum, but who cares about silly reality?). I included myself in this piece as well; a self-portrait styled after Vigee Le Brun's portrait of Adelaide Labille-Guiard.



The painting and frame are the only portions I did not render due to the fact that there is no way I could possibly recreate the genius of Boucher. I consider this piece to be more of a "sketch" than a finished work. I think there's a lot I want to go back and do to it.
