Artist's Comments

I am finally done, after what I think, reached 50+ hours of work and it was all the final touches, such as detail lights, and shadows... I am tired, so tired, and I am still just 90% happy with it, but that is a skill matter, I still don't know exactly how a shadow fall when light sources hits from a 1 or multiple positions and so on, but I am learning, and for those that have followed my work for a long time know how far I have reached!
The almost daily sketching and painting on the computer for about 8 years + the years with pen and paper, has shown to be worth the effort and passion for it, and I must say I am proud of myself!
And a heartfelt thank you to all of you that have supported my art with views, comments, buying prints and just being nice and simply likes my art!!!

But yes it still has flaws and feel free to give constructive critique, and some day I might take it one step further but for now I passed my 2 personal exam :) :hug:

Well, congratulations on this piece and I know you were working very hard on it! Now wrap up those fingers and relax a bit! LOL! Great details in this piece and that's how it works...just keep at it and the rest will fall into place over time. I'm still learning how to sign my name with my tablet! LOL! Most excellent work, it's quite beautiful in entirety!

Lovely, but the jewelry looks a little cut-and-pasted because it has a different lightsource than the model, and there are no cast shadows. Just something to think about for future projects!

Art is a step from what is obvious and well-known toward what is arcane and concealed.

ah thats because I forgot to add the last shadows to the jewel, when it comes to casting shadows it does its just weak but on the close up you should see a piece of it.
Do you know how the shadow would fall on her (the jewel) I dont, therefor the weaker shadow, but if you do feel free to say :)
And thank you
