Just a few images to show the process- (i will probably stop doing these soon) heres a compilation of the original drawing after scaning and some piecing together. (my scanner is an old A4 thats really on its last legs.) Next is the gown and dog after they had been pretty much finished and their paths applied, followed by a wip of the baby creature.
Next is a view of the background landscape painting, its pretty much completed at this point, just some additional touches were made and then it was brought into the final file for the last stages.
After everything was brought together in one massive file i proceeded to make subtle changes to the lighting with some curves, levels etc. The red hummingbirds were the last element to go in on the top layer. Below is the final piece followed by some detail shots at 70%. Im gonna try and get off my ass this week and get some sketches done for a series of portraits i have in mind. Watch this space.

Love your work Tom! I like the graphical and decorative aspects of you art. Great to see your wips here.
awesome stuff guy ! I'm totally amaze!
Amazing, I love it!
Absolutely stunning, so smooooth - are you a photoshop or painter man?
Painter and photoshop, painter is far more intuitive when it comes to elements that require subtle blending and a painterly approach. I very rarely 'paint' in photoshop, painter is built for that, i tend to use photoshop for pretty much everything else though.
