Wow! It might just be me, but I think the nose looks a little bit flat, but the rest of the picture has really nice depth to it, and the shading and the highlights look wonderful! Keep up the great work!

I have sean this before on deviant art.. and culd not just se what was wrong, but now I know.. The neck is gracefulle but comparing to a normal size its to long .. and the hand is to smal .. so the propotions is a lithlle way out .. otherwise its great look of grace.. The old masters did manipulite the back of a woman if they did paint that and did it longer that it shuld be as the advertising does to day by making longer legs on the femail *s* its pretty hard to se what they have done..

..still it looks good so you gets a +5

The bow on the arm is just amazing! You really feel the material. I like the shading on the back and the general feel of the painting. I have to agree the nose is a little flat. Really solid work.

i hope she does not have a hearing problem cuz those ears are small. i love it just the same. i would comment more but due to the fact i am on the road i find it neccesary to use library computers, may satan take them, but obviously none of them are well known for their imaging and your picture unfourtunately is quite pixalized. toodles

I submit to what magnoliafan88 said about the ear; also, the lips..seems lifless. But then again, it's an good exercise if you ask me again

Good work, maestro

I've seen this soo many times, are you just reentering it into the gallery constantly?

I love the folds in the feminine gloves or whatever those are called. lol

walt - errr.... I have no idea what you're talking about. I'm a fairly new artist here and I've only submitted it once.

hmm, that's wierd. I could have sworn I've seen it a least a dozen times. No harm intended, now that I read over it, it sounded mean, I didn't want that sorry.

no I mean, it keeps popping up at the top of the elite gallery which is usually where new art work is right? or is my comp just screwed up

It has a victorian flavor to it Great work

Your the master with paint! I love how that bow turned out! Great lighting and texturing!

Have you looked at the paint can labels of Benjamin Moore Collection paints (Canada, not sure about the States)?? It has a painting SO similar to this~ I wonder if you designed the labels now!
