From Nick Knights picture.
Didn´t see that she has her foot a bit up on the orginal picture, my mistake.

I love the contrast a lot. :) It's very beautiful and bold.

Thanks, what´s the bold with it?

20 years in the same city still don’t know my way around. And still get lost inside of my thoughts. Say a dumb joke just to hear myself talk. I swear someday I’m gonna be somebody’s hero. But until that day I’m just a motherfuckin weirdo.

I adore the original photograph and you have interpreted it well, keeping the simple strong lines that made it so attractive in the first place; a lovely painting.

Great pose! The colours are great too, and how you did the smoke from her cigarette.
Her hands look a little strange (for example, her left pinky stats way too far down on the hand), but other than that, it's a really wonderful painting!

The pose is very striking and the colors surrounding the smoke, the blue has a nice strong contrast with the warm background. :)

Oh, just took a little white and put it there it where smoke on the picture. Yes, i know the hand is fucked up. A simple thing to stright out but have the energy to it is another thing :)

'Susie Smoking' was the shot that first got me into photography and was also the reason I went to study photography in Bournemouth... It's great to see an interpretation that not only reflects what makes the original so great but actually accentuates its beauty. :+favlove:
