I'm currently doing some Master copies in order to help improve my skill. I think I can learn a lot studying from the old Masters, especially in terms of color. The original piece titled "The Bacchante" is from Gerome Jean Leon. I started this one in black and white and added color in the later stages. I might be using this technique in all my future pieces, I'm not so sure. Colors can tend to get a bit muddy if you start off with greyscale, but hopefully I can rectify that. You can check out the WIP at my blog as well.

I think the only thing that could be improved a bit more is the hair, for some reason it just doesn't seem to fit with the rest of the peice, but the skin tones you used are just amazing

Wow, very beautiful. I'd love to see more of this kind of stuff on SheezyArt. Interesting technique, too. My personal favorite part of this is the clothing, the detail noted to the folds is amazing.
