The Amazon Princess

Wonder Woman done as a hostess gift for a friend of mine when she hosted a party recently. She is a huge fan of superheroes and has multiple superhero ornaments. Wonder Woman is her favorite, so Wonder Woman she got.

This piece is small, about 5"x5" and is made from Canson and Canford papers. As a bit of perspective, the highlights in her eyes are about the size of a 14pt Times New Roman period. When working at this scale, the thickness of the paper can work against you and some of that happened here. I notice it mostly on the two shades of paper making up her skin tone. I don't think it looks bad, just that it seems a little more clunky than I would have liked.

A note about the background. Remind me to never do that again! It was an elbow killer and a huge problem to secure down.
