I believe this is the finished version. Changed the mountain idea to just lines, so that I can still have it white without it overpowering her face. I like the abstractness of it too. If you've ever seen photos of Bjork, then you know she doesn't like to do very conventional things so I think the vagueness of what's in her hair feeds into her personality. I'm really happy with it, although unsure of what my professor will say. Guess we'll find out come Monday morning.

Bjork Madness
Well, as part of my electronic class, I'm doing a portrait of Bjork. It was inspired by her song Joga, which is why I'm (trying to) ncorporating a landscape kinda meshed into the background of her hair. I'm liking it, my professor isn't too keen on the mountains as they are in this (this is most definitely a work in progress picture) so I have to try to get them to her liking by Monday. She suggested I make them purple instead of white, but I'm not too sure how much I like that idea.....but I'm happy with the face the way it is. It's my first time painting digitally, and it's quite fun. The next time I'd like to try out the mixer brush more. I haven't used it on this because I didn't want it to look super rendered. I do like it though, just have to work out the landscaping in the background.....hopefully.
