Arizona Muse - Top Newcomers Spring 2011

Well hello, my friends!
How was your weekend? Mine was amazing.
It was like the first weekend where I wasn't working through it in like 12 weeks!
yep yep... so the Top Model Newcomer of the day is Arizona Muse!
She was really fun to paint.
She has a real wholesome familiar look to her. She actually reminds me a lot of a childhood friend of mine,
which I think made it easy to paint her.

So when i was tasked with painting each of the Top Newcomers of Spring 2011 for models.com,
I went on a searching spree for references of Arizona.
For some reason, this one runway photo of her really stood out to me.
I think my favorite thing about this picture of her
is the confidence/determined expression on her face.
I used a mixture of pen, pencil, ink, & acrylic on this one. and pretty much the entire series.
What do you think of how it turned out?
I really hope you like it :)
