DREANNA
She lives in dreams and helps us metamorphosise a bad dream into a good one.

Done for a painting challenge at work.

About the creative process : I wanted to make her little amorphous and hazy...just as a dream ...If you focus too hard or hold onto her too much then she will disappear... :) Created random splotches and saw a shape in it so just painted to enhance that hoping that will help her get that feel...of forming out of her background.

Tried a master copy of http://www.johnsingersargent.org/Jacques-Barenton.html by one of my favorite artists... John Singer Sargent. Done in photoshop.12-15 hours.
