Queen guinevere

Hey! Guess what? Lancelot and Guinevere are going digital. I described my initial idea for the painting here. I thought I wanted to do this in oil, but as I working on the color and value studies I said to myself, "Self- why would you draw this over again when this is looking so nice?"

Finally, I finished it! I did this artwork for Artstation King Arthur Challenge but something went wrong)

Guinevere /ˈɡwɪnᵻvɪər/, often written as Guenevere or Gwenevere (Welsh Gwenhwyfar), was the wife of King Arthur in the Arthurian Legend. In medieval romances, one of the most prominent story arcs is Queen Guinevere's love affair with her husband's chief knight Sir Lancelot. This story first appeared in Chrétien de Troyes's Lancelot, the Knight of the Cart and became a motif in Arthurian literature, starting with the Lancelot-Grail Cycle of the early 13th century and carrying through the…
