Saving Kiss Picture

About

I painted this for the 2nd Annual Erotic
Signature Book. The subject matter is a little tame. It took me a while
to paint, on and off for over a month, I used a lot of reference
material for all the coral and sea life and posed my husband and myself
for the characters. In the end, I'm pretty happy. I used Painter 9 for
the majority of this artwork and depicted the hair in Photoshop. I
noticed that importing this piece back and forth has caused some
posterization (especially in the dark areas). I don't know if this is a
common problem. Comments are welcome.
