The face is drawn from a photo. I don't have her permission to post her photo online, but it is what she looks like.
All other things except the face are made up.

I'm so humbled by this picture. I was commissioned to do a similar type of work for family members, but this is so much more advanced. You've accurately re-created the style and design of the era while maintaining your own personality.

A wonderful idea to do a Renaissance-like portrait from a photo. Of course no Italian painter would have used a dusky background, but this makes your painting the more intriguing. I hope the person you portrayed liked herself in that saintly look. ;)

Wow, that's gorgeous. Outstanding use of light in this one, the image is very soft and delicate to look at.

It looks like something from hundreds of years ago. :)

You really are marvelous with pastels!

My one critique is that her eyes are looking different directions. Which actually wasn't that uncommon in long ago portraits...
