Leticia Reinaldo Character Analysis

Leticia Reinaldo is a Brazilian artist who now resides in Los Angeles as a freelance artist. I would assume I'm most drawn to her work because of her Disneyesque stylization. Her proportions are extreme, and the composition of her artwork is alluring to the eye.

I completely disregarded the fact that I quite literally started using this program like two moths ago and decided that a flowy skirt would be a grand idea. It was not a grand idea, and in fact gave me so much stress that I was convinced I would throw my computer into the wall. However, I did not, as I eventually smoothed the heck out of those edges and now its totally awesome and I love it. I'd say that I am extremely happy with the outcome considering that I assumed I wouldn’t be able to sculpt a potato, yet here we
