Tools: ArtRage 2.5 and tablet
Time: 5 hours on the original, full version and another hour adding the background and so on in this part of it.

Painted for #dapride's Emotion contest

Started off as a portrait of my sister, closely referenced from a photograph (realism practice).
The cat is also referenced from one of my photographs, with the lighting changed - this cat:D


The seagull tattoos are out of my head.

Anyway, apart from the troubles I'm having painting a 'real person' for once, I didn't think I should be putting pictures of my sister up online. Also, had something else in mind for the full portrait.

Anyway, I cropped the top off, and changed the background and a bit of the lighting. And now they're outside, ather than inside by a window...

Title is because my sister requested an "Autumn Colours' picture, so the phrase was in my head while painting, and it all matched nicely.
