In the Rose Garden: A Gothic Fantasy Portrait


In the Rose Garden by Justin Gedak

In the Rose Garden

Digital Painting and Photo Manipulation of a Medieval Gothic Fantasy Warrior by Justin Gedak 2015

Golden words locked behind Crimson secrets Wild and unfound, and hidden in the shadows A light in the past, holding true

An unbroken promise to make it last

To see it through

To find a way

She waits in furthest corners of the unknown Ready to give up, but endeavoring just the same

Quiet agony

Silent torments

The light in the past holds true Burning with despair

Tortured hope

Yet stronger every day

Beautiful Female Warrior

This Gothic fantasy portrait was created with a combination of digital painting and photo manipulation using Corel Painter, Adobe Photoshop, and a Wacom Intuos Pro Tablet. I digitally painted on literally hundreds of layers to get that "scratchy effect using a self taught technique.

Based on the photography of Marali Sadykhov

For anyone wanting to sign up to my mailing list, I'm giving away a free full resolution digital download of "Born for Battle". It's a very large image, 9000 x 6750 300dpi, and I figured it would be interesting for people to be able to zoom right in to see the details and brushwork. Also, anyone with access to a good printer can print off their own print of it without having to order anything online.
