Whistler's Audrey
Whistler's Audrey by @Hippy_of_Doom (Sabrina A Thomas)

I don't know what Whistler, or his mother would think, but I quite like my adaptation. I wanted to something like this since seeing the work of Renato Casaro, and then a contest on dA motivated me even more. Just incase it wasn't clear, this is Audrey Hepburn as Whistler's Mother. I was copying from a really crappy print out, so please excuse if some detail is bit off :S

I started the curtain first which took a while, but once that was done, I finished the rest in 2 days. The reference image can be found in "Audrey Hepburn: An Elegant Spirit" and was taken by Steven Meisel. Enough of that, hope you like!

I really like this... I can tell that curtain must have taken forever, but your time spent really paid off. This is very good... almost creepy.
