Butterfly portrait

For this portrait, I decided to draw a woman (as with most of the fashion photography models), surrounded by butterflies.  I am using coloured pencil for this, and then I plan on outlining the butterflies with felt tip or fineliner pen.  Below are progress shots.


 I decided to add quite a lot of hair in the picture to give an appearance similar to that of the models used by Tim Walker, as well as similar to how fairies and other fantasy creatures are depicted.

The butterflies I have chosen to draw in different colours to stand out, as well as giving them harsh black outlines and some white detailing on the wings.

Below is my final result.
