It's freakin' Labor Day, California experiences a tolerably cooler, brilliant sunny day, the whole world sleeps in past 10, and what the hell happens to Jamie? Those corporate white-collar bastards (probably the kingpins of the child labor salt mine mafia) call him in to work.
So if he works, I work. Fairness wouldn't mandate it any differently.
Tried a much softer shading approach with less emphasis on shadow and more construction based around highlights. Also accomplished with the broken frame style of the previous image.
This coloring is very unique, I admire your use of different levels of color and the picture, how she pops right out. I can imagine that without your coloring talent, this picture would not looks as good as it does. Also great use of shine, and softening the image, really great.
I wouldn't mind getting wrapped in her vines.
