Reworking Lady Cerberus 'Her Plea' to VIKING -ness


Wanted to rework my Cerberus painting. This one, as you might remember, had the destroyed sunken Cerberus in the foreground, and, well, I don't think the Cerberus should be remembered like that. The Cerberus is something we are trying to save.
SO
I turned this into a viking painting....couldn'ta guessed that one comin aye?
Viking Burial ship. The lady is still the mistress of the sea, what man who has sailed upon the waters, not seen her?! She is there for all of them, sometimes loving, sometimes in anger she moves the sea beneath them, but they love her still, like they do us! lol

Thanks Mary, would love to get better at hair, it keeps eluding me lol I love seeing the graphite artists draw hair, absolutely amazing. Will have to get some tips from them lol.

Hi Julie, thanks muchly buddy, I liked it before too, but it was a little depressing I think, seeing the Cerberus all wrecked, much better with a glorious flaming viking ship LOL

Hi Kolleen, thanks muchly! Thanks for stopping by too, am most appreciative!
