kascheTitle: Mrs. Black
Fandom: ...guess.
Rating: Hey, I seem to be doing only G-rated pics lately.
Notes: I first thought of this roughly eight-nine months ago, after I read A Black in Wolf's Clothing, by Minx. While it's not directly related to the story, the inspiration surely came from there.
So, this is why we have a young and (hopefully) fine-looking Mrs. Black.
Er. In order to look like a proper painting, it would have needed a frame. And a sort-of-background. Of course, I thought of this only now.
Anyway: some of you may remember the very, very first sketch. There, the reference I used for the dress is way more clear than it's here. In any case, it's Cristofano Allori's "Judith with the Head of Holofernes", although this time around I changed things quite a bit - but who knows, maybe someone who studied Art History, and remembers it, has got that. :)
Me and proportions are still on no-speaking terms, so nothing to be gained there. Mrs Black does have an ego the size of a Quidditch field, though, so maybe I could make her head's dimension pass as "symbolic". :P
So. How is it? Honestly?

I don't think her head is too big. Honestly, the only bit that's a little wonky is her ear. I think that was much more successful in the earlier sketch.
But she is lovely. <3

Small bit of trivia: did you know that this was the first idea I had for your bday gift? Then, I opted for something that seemed more... appropriate, shall we say. ;)
Love you.
