Alright, this is me most recent picture. She's a watercolor, 11 x 15 inches, and she took about 56 hours to do.

Comments and Critiques welcome and encouraged

i guess i would! :confused:

WOw! watercolors seem hard, but you know what I wish that you would have kept it like? Like that watercolory feel, not a painterly feel. Which looks good, but I like the watery and sketchier feel of watercolors! just a peronal pref!:rolleyes:

she seems really short-- if she stood up shed only be like 3 1/2 or 4 feet high. Everything in th eforeground is really well rendered--especially th elighting from th elamp!!

the BG bookcase is really flat--as you have that one local blue for the wall behind the books--i think it could use more shadows and darker values back there--or actually it might just be th eintesnsity/saturation of that blue--i think thats part of the spacial prob--its too intense so its popping out at us--maybe play in photoshop with th esaturation and values

good job, i commend you for using watercolor--very unforgiving medium--ty
