My first painting in 2016. Yay :bademoticon: 

I was trying to make such a painting for a long time now  , but I never felt to be ready for it.   I wasn't sure of me, that I would be able to choose the right colors for the dark skin tones and to paint them the right way.
I must say, that it wasn't so easy to paint the skin as normaly, but I learned a lot. 

I'm very very happy with the painting.  

My reference photo was : www.pinterest.com/pin/38428378…
In the photo it says that the model is Alek Wek...but I didn't recognized her in it
