Maeve was a goddess known for her intoxicating sensual beauty, so I was going for a "come hither" look - ha...
She's 9" x 12" on a wooden canvas...
mostly acrylic paint, with some details done in colored pencil.
Here are a few of the steps along the way. It started out with a sketch directly onto the board...
Then some color blocking with paint...
and here's another angle of the finished painting.
