The Dark side
No, this is not inspired by Resident Evil, no, this is just a try to visualize the Dark Side, the other side beyond beauty. It is easy to do, just a massive desaturation of the skin, darken eyes, background, adding a new color styled layer, blending this and that. You can do an Internet search on “Dark Art” to find a DIY instruction as well or on Youtube. There a quite a lot of videos on that theme. Try it. Its fun. But be warned: Your model may take the stick and beat you for what you are doing. So ask her first !

The third in a row. My wife said “although looking good, like an old icon, it has a lot less power compared with the other two of your dark series”
But it has punch again, lovely combination of desaturating and colored veil, like a dressed statue …
