i dunno why but the transition from light to shadow really blows in the photo.. it doesn't suck so bad irl, really, i'm absolutely kind of sure.

nice..love it
reminds me of paintings of Freud..but with more colour.

is this a digital artwork?

awesome work chumps I really like your stuff a lot. You really should try to get your stuff posted in a museum or reviewed by some art critic. I really think people would latch on to your style. Your stuff is great.

impressive. beautiful and frightening at the same time. the detail is amazing, it could be a piece all by itself. nonsense with that light transition stuff, it looks tight from here; very stylish.

i think its beautiful aswell..

the nose is a little wiggy,, it could use a bit more attention.
but maby thats the light/mid tones transition thingie you were talking about goobering it up.

it looks like she stole the nose off of Rowan Atkinson.

yoink! :p

A bit rainbow-y...maybe try not going so far out with your colors...just push a select few....its nice that your painting...and you have the right idea with contrast and making your eye move throughout the piece...just use less colors....:chug:

I like the close up image more, it's like a detail from an old master. The complexity in the larger picture seems to be a little superfluous to me, although it does help with the composition somewhat.

I really like this painting. I'd disagree about the "rainbow-y" comment, I think the colors are what's making it so appealing. the only thing I would change, if this was mine, would be to shift the focus out of the direct center. that's just me though, and I think it works really well the way it is now too. nice one.

yolegas: i don't know about freud hehe.. thought my last painting (a self portrait) ended up rather high-key.. like a freud painting.. and no this isn't digital it is in oil.

mind: you are too free with your compliments, hard to take you seriously!

lono: the big nose never even occured to me. but i do see what you mean. still, unless i look for it it doesn't seem THAT big. :)

stark: i think i tend to get 'rainbow-y' for almost any painting i work on. color and painting is a totally new thing for me so i tend to go overboard. that said, i don't mind this girl's yellow-green skin, it's somehow charming :).

china: not surprising, since i looked at a lot of da vinci's sketches/paintings of women (and their downcast stares teehee) like la scapiliata, virgin on the rocks, and the sketches for leda.

cotron: i will have to remember the direct center thing, i never seem to remember any rules of composition!

I love your stuff so much that's why. I honestly believe what I am saying. I mean nothing's perfect. But I really like your stuff so much! It has an aesthetic I haven't seen many other places. Keep up the good work man.
