I found Christiane through Deviantart, thinking at first I had stumbled upon a photograph...but through closer inspection I realized that these were in fact absolutely incredible oil paintings.

As a beginner to more realistic portraits finding her is an incredible inspiration to me. She works to precisely to create not only absolutely stunning paintings, but with her own imagination and her own fantasy interlocked within them.

The way she captures ever strand of hair, just look at the work on that cloth! Everything is superbly done to the highest standards. If I ever was to get a person to sit down and teach me "Right!! This is how you paint proper!"...it would be her.

Christiane is a true inspiration to me for her infallable note to lighting, realism, stunning proportions, imagination, technique and beauty. I think I have said, "I cant bare to look at these anymore!!" so many times while writing this post because she is SO good, its hard to watch :D
