This is my vision of Olympiada in digital charcoal. I spent a few
hours visualizing how I imagined her to look, and found a photograph
that reminded me of my fantasy. She has been encouraging me lately to
focus on my art, and fantasies. So I got out my charcoal set, and drew
the photo as large as I was able to on a huge sheet of paper. I tride
my best to think about the photo as hard as I could and visualize
myself drawing it in my mind. But as usual my art is never good
enough. So what I did next created something I hope will be adaquet to
show you how I actually imagine okay.
Once I scanned the image in I used an artistic technique I've created
to create a digital copy of it in photoshop. Then I blended in the
real photo with my artistic charcoal, so you can't tell there even was
a real photo. It looks like truly digitally inspired artwork, they a
real artist may as well have created. I just love this technique and I
hope you all take a look here:

If you have any GOOD criticisms let me know so I can continue to work
on my methods, and create even better works of interactive fantasy in
the future.
Tell me what you think especially Atlanta. Does it look like you? ?
