Wood Elf by @denise (Denise Chan)
This is really a self-portrait - at least, the reference was me, and I think it looks like me (without glasses). Thought I should at least mess up my own face, if I was going to learn to do portraits. I'm pretty proud of this first attempt.
I wouldn't be caught dead with a flower in my hair in real life, but I thought it would fit quite well here, since I'm an elf and all. ;)

Really gorgeous! I'm very impressed with the soft feeling that's conveyed in the evening/earlymorning misty light. Very very cool.
