This is a Gruau-style sample I just finished for Diane von Furstenberg/DC Comics. I don't quite understand what it's being used for, but hopefully I'll get the 9-page gig.
It's been a while since I've colored these sorts of washes and the job was rushed (start to finish in 5 hours) but it turned out alright. I wish Paltrow's face was less overworked. It's hard hitting that perfect spot between rendered and suggested detail. But I'm pretty happy with the first two.
I have a feeling and a comic book colorist is NEVER going to be able to match this look by dropping the grays and whatnot.

Sean, you've got the kind of style that's always exciting to look at...no matter what the subject. I hope we get to see lots more from you in the comic realm.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article.

We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community.
