The Making Of: Spring Afternoon

Not to long ago I did an art piece that I titled Spring Afternoon (really cheesy and horrible title, I know) and I saved some Work in progress (WIP) pictures of it so I could look back at the process.

I started with a sketch like this. The sketch is colored and a bit more detailed than usual, but that's what I ended up with anyways.

Next, I vectored over the sketch and ditched the lines, and of course added a bit of detail.As you can see, it's not exactly the same as the sketch. I tweaked and changed a few things such as the eyes and mouth.
Finally, I added more detail, shading, and a background to pull it all together.  For the background, jewel/gem things, and the bow I used gradients to get that nice fading effect.
