From Rebecca Kimmel's OFDW 021 "Angels & Devils"
This image was inspired by the work of
MOCHI, Francesco
Angel of Annunciation
1603-05

I used Painter's default brushes to blend and shape the angel and her clothing using mostly oils. Photoshop came in handy for finer details like face, hands, hair and feet. I wasn't sure if I should detail the bird more or not. It's a falcon I think.
I had alot of fun with this image and had alot of helpful suggestions along the way.
Rebecca's figure drawing workshops are excellent.
