Art - She's a Kindhearted Lady [SPN, Abbadean]

[sophiap]

This was done for artpaperscissor and the alexisjane's prompt of "Traveling Riverside Blues."

When I read through the lyrics of the Zeppelin version of the song, my mind instantly went to Abbadon. So, here she is - in a AU where things went a bit differently - about to have some fun with Dean before taking him as her "ride."

OMG that's great. I LOVE it, and I love the roughness so don't worry about it it just add to the general feeling your piece inspire.

Nice job!

Thank you so much! I think I'm still learning to appreciate the fact that my natural style tends to the rough vs. some other styles I admire in other artists.

Incredible! I think the choice of charcoal and this paper adds some extra depth to the scene and your shading. Great job!

[sophiap]

Thank you so much!

I've really been enjoying working with this paper.

Mmmm. LOVE Abaddon's popping red hair, her body language, the nebulous darkness behind her, and Dean's little slump.

[sophiap]

Thank you so much! As soon as I realized that I wanted to draw Abbadon, I wanted to throw as much focus onto that red as possible (so a lot of the pigment in the darkness behind her head is actually dark, dark green).

It's great to see some traditional art and I think you did a great job!

[sophiap]

Thank you!

I've been playing with digital art a bit, but I find I miss the feel of the paper (I do a lot of blending w/ my fingertips). I do wish traditional media came with an "undo" button, though.

oh! She's lovely! Really! And Dean is just so beautiful slumped over!

What a gorgeous piece!!

[sophiap]

Thank you so much!

(And Dean is so often at his prettiest when he's in pain, isn't he?)
