she is a graphic artist

some of her art



While I think some of the higher end painters could paint this she did not. after seeing that her art (the one where she has talent I mean) is with computers I could only say photoshopped. I think someone else already pointed out that she did more than just shoulder pad work on her computer.


I had to set up a Photobucket accout to get access here but its her full album. Looks like karma got to her in the end.

Does this work?

go back one level from the pic into the photobucket abum and there\'s ample evidence that the quality of the rest of here painting is not up to the job

PHOTOSHOPPED!

and then some

Not only is it badly photoshopped, but the bill of the hat actually sticks out of the shoulder pad. And then the gall to say she freehanded it.

I call B.S. and I call her a liar and a fraud.

Yea, pretty serious. But pretty serious to misrepresent art.

Hard to believe she was not just being cheeky. It\'s obviously not her freehand.
Check out her freehand of the Mozilla Firefox logo on another shoulder. Decent, but not superb and definitely not photorealistic.

Photoshop.
a) it\'s clearly a photo
b) the cap extends from the shoulder
c) you can see the jpg compression on the face, which is different from the rest of the picture

Well it\'s possible this is freehand... but not from the painter of the rest of the figure!

With any claim like this you want to see more work from the same person, see what their level is like consistently, but the rest of the figure is pretty good evidence here.

Is there any other place that she claimed it\'s freehand.. safe from the picture name? If not she could mean it\'s a try out for a freehand/just an idea... not actually freehand itself... just a badly chosen name then....She has some colour tests in the album as well. Or did she actually claim in a sentence somewhere she painted it freehand?

Calm down, guys... I think it was meant to be a joke. She named the pic \"freehand\" but the title in her gallery is an emoticon (\":D\"), which is a hint she isn\'t serious. It is funny (to some people...) because it\'s so obvious this is NOT freehand.

i agree. it looks like a joke to me after all if the quality of her freehand is normally like this then she has really progressed!!

I am sorry, you are right. I took it at face value as it was presented here. Of course it is true, I read it on the internet.

well maybe they were being ironic you know! :) like \"yeah that\'s really great\" and when you responded she just \"of course it\'s freehand..\" because nobody with eyes left in their body would claim that it is freehand.

hehehe...I was just about to point that out...:D I think it\'s a tranfer printed with a high quality printer, as Jeff pointed out. It\'s easily done nowadays to get that kind of detail.

Yep, that was pointed out before I posted. Sorry what I meant to get across was one can paint this detailed, not that this could have been :)

That\'s just sad ain\'t it?

As Margo correctly pointed out you can see what looks like differing compression artefacts, plus it\'s no accident that this photo is small and doesn\'t contain the full EXIF data... If she continues to claim it\'s genuine there\'s a simple solution: ask her to post another photograph from another angle at natural resolution from the camera, she\'ll either use outrage as an excuse that she won\'t, or fess up (I vote for option #1).
