I want to preface this post with a shout out to Steemit for existing and therefore causing a pouring out of my creative juices, and for @Slothicorn making it even juicier and supporting two of my most recent works! Also to the individuals who are beginning to become friends in my followers as well as those who upvoted and talked to me about my art! Thank you! The next piece I am doing will be soley for your use and I will be putting it in @creativecommons for public use! I have an idea involving dragons and raccoons! Stay tuned! This one is for one of my sisters @laurenbrindock who had her birthday yesterday and I wanted to do something special, it is her portrait so I am not sure she would want it for public use, but I will add if anyone wants to just ask, its very likely I and she will say YES! I also havent added a crypto wallet yet, but plan to for the next post! I am all for Slothicorn's mission of having cryptocurrency go mainstream through art and plan on helping, in fact last week I posted my art work on facebook and said my burst of creativity was through my journey so far on here on Steemit, and the fact that cryptocurrency being a possible benefit along with a huge base of people to talk to and work with(I think Steemit has close to a million users) from all over the world helped to make it such a attractive place to be.
Back to the recent portrait! 
I asked my nephew what magical creature he wanted to be and he said Mega Monster, a monster of his creation, and he sent me a drawing as reference for what he should look like :)
I had SO much fun doing this peice, as you may be able to tell! Here is the full portrait, the above is a detail
Here is the original photo I used as reference:
The outline base drawing
and now the fun!!! Details!
This one was a blast and I hope you enjoy it Steemians!!! Have a lovely evening!

p.s. I want to add, I am having problems with the transfer of details from the painting program I am using(Artflow)and hope to have that clarified by my next post! Its a shame you just cant see everything I put into it, when you zoom in on this copy some of it is lost. But I have hope!
