Greetings steemers:
I had the pleasure to chat with Mrs 
The story is really simple I find her drawings very inspiring and after a little chat as I understand she is an amateur painter and she has a lot of interests which I am not going to reveal I will let her promote her self as she pleases and she fits to. She was kind enough to allow me to use one of her pictures as I am in search of something inspiring to paint for my own collection.
I was lucky enough to stumble upon this picture of her ( photogrpapher is Mr. Stephan keinz so Kudos for that fine photo) which I found to be an amazing piece of art. So I ask her permission to use it for a project and she was kind enough to accept.
This project is a study of how I am planning to approach this painting, Photoshop is a powerful tool for concepts and I am using it to see the potential in my idea before I start painting it.

Process
Below is the original photo of Mr. Stephan keinz: It is excellent as it is. But I am planning for something more dreamy. I love the pose (although I will center it a bit to the right in the end, just some mm to get the golden rule right). take note of how the lines of the head her left arm and the cross section of her feet is aligned almost perfect in the center of the picture:
The main problem I faced was that this picture was very sharp for what I am aiming for and I had to invent the mid-tones needed for that dreamy image I was after. So I improvised.
I will produce 3 different pictures and add some blue purplish lights. I will also darken up the colors and illuminate the skin tones in the third copy. I am planing to use an HDR technique to get to the result I was thinking of in my head and hopefully this trick will work. ( Have in mind I am not in posses ion of the Raw NEF files so this would make my end result not as great as it would be other wise). But for my purposes of a concept art will do just fine.
Here after several hours of playing around with the settings on the HDR panel I have managed to get the result I was visioning. The two pictures below are ready to be my next composition. I love the ripples on the fabric. That along with the pose, they are giving me the feeling of a meta classicism sculpture. Like something Micheal Angelo would be creating if he was among us at this era.

Every SD collected from this post will be split with the model
This post is released, as a research in form and shape for my work, I have the permission needed of the owners to both work with it, and post that progress on my blog.
I will never release material copied or pasted without the proper permissions from the artists.
We are professionals after all. This is what we do. I strongly suggest to keep an eye on her blog as well. She is quite talented and promising.
I hope you like the end result. You can check more of my work on my blog.
If you do like it then, consider following me and stay tuned with my future projects.
