As you can see by the fact that it's signed '05, this thing is pretty damn old. But I thought it's still interesting and it was a fun project, so here you go. (Note: The original copy is about four inches long, so that's why on a larger view the detail suffers seriously. It looks best small, sadly.)

It was an art project from Mr. Rhea's class several years back, where I had to make a picture using only ink dots and using a photograph as a reference. I'd post the photograph I used-- it was a stock photo-- but this is old enough that I lost the reference I had used, so if anyone knows the picture I'd love to have it and credit it. The lady has such an interesting face, and just because of the scale-like texture of her skin my teacher and I took to calling her the Dragon Lady.

I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be able to do a better job on this even now, though.
