Very vibrant, I love the colors :)
The only flicker of crit I have is about the hand of the girl on the right : its a little blurry ;maybe you could have defined it a bit more?
Anyways its not a flaw, the work is amazing , I could neverrr achieve this!!!

Have you been watching the movie "Anna and the king" lately? He reminds me so much of the king! :p Look:



Sorry about that, I know there's not a connection.I just wanted to show the similarity. I love that movie, so it's a compliment! ;)

Ok, over to the commenting:

The many layers of golden clothes shows his royal heritage, and so do the golden mask of his. But why are the clothes torn? There seems to be a really interesting story behind this! Maybe the torn clothes suggest that he is a king who have done bad deeds, or it might tell that he is about to lose his kingdom,
or... Well, I don't know the story, but it sure sounds exciting.
I like the expression in his face; he looks like a gentle man. Yet, the sharpness of his eyes also gives him a slightly dangerous look... Maybe he is not what he seems to be? Or am I reading too much from this? :p

The white feathers that woman is wearing are beautifully painted. But the hand looks unfinished, since it is blurry and not well defined.
The way tou left the two women in shadow helps tell thathe is the king and they are somewhere below that. The focus is placed on him.

About the king: his eyes doesn't seem to be on line. His right eye is placed higher up than the left one.
Nice background! The painting is dominated by golden colours, so the blue patterns on his tunica is a fresh add. ;)

Is there a carneval going on?
