Xena: Warrior Princess

This is a portrait drawing of Xena: Warrior Princess (from the hit TV series) I did this drawing for myself practicing on capturing facial expressions. It was recently auctioned off for charity to help raise money for the victims of hurricane Katrina. All proceeds went to the relief efforts. Original was approximately 8x10 done on an standard sketch paper.

Yup, this is Xena - she is probably making that face when she reacts to one of Ares' insane antics or something along that line!

Beautifully done here Trish, I love how you have worked the hair, one can almost make out each strand of hair and the highlighting/constrasting of hair to hair and hair to skin have also peeked my interest. Nice job Trish.

Artist Reply: Thank you so much for the kind words! But between you me and the world...I hate doing hair, but love the end result! LOL
