Lady in Bloom

When I’m creating a portrait, I’m constantly asking myself, “should I see one more variation?” It’s very hard to stop. Will upscaling a good image make it even better? What’s the point of spending an hour on an image if you’re not thrilled with the final result? This started off as a girl with an “explosion of flowers.” It took me in so many different directions before I realized that my favorite image was a remastered image in the middle of my timeline. Take a look at the variants at the bottom of the page to see how much the various branches diverged.
