Very nice job! I particularly like the subtle dragonlike characteristics of the branches. One thing that jumped out at me was the moon or whatever it is behind her; it seems just a little too orange. I don't know the story behind that, so perhaps it's appropriate. But it just doesn't look quite right to me. Anyway, keep up the good work!

this is really just so beautiful i love the green and pinks. I have seen your work before and it is superb!!! you do a great job. I would have to agree with Datameister about the moon. It is a little odd with the color, Maybe makeing it the same or close color to her face, with a yellow glow.
Great work, I love your paintings. :)

Impressive work. Your detailed style is great. My only critic is about girl's eyes. It seems her left eye is in wrong place. I think it must be closer to her nose. Keep posting.

I love the colours! But, that orange moon doesnt look right, because it looks like there is already a moon at the very top of the picture to the left. I think the orange moon, should have a really bright yellow or blue glow, and have some of that light upon the girl? Or you could keep it that colour, and make it look like it is actually a sphere, 'cause the lighter edges make it look kinda flat.

Perhaps you could make the sky a similar colour to the orange to moon make it look like it's lighting up.

I love the use of greens and pinks in this piece and the branches. well done :)

Lovely work! I'm a big fan of your work Noah. The colour choices are OK in my eyes, maybe the moon is a bit orange... hmmm I dunno. The only thing I think is Thora Birch is quite a feisty lass, so it'd been nice to see a bit more expression. She's seems a bit 'passive'. But I love it just the same! :)

boy, i love that organic intricacy work. really, my only concern is the effect the rough background has against the figure in the foreground. The strokes are rather awkward in how rough/quick/painted and less natural they arein comparison to how smooth/polished and refined she and the rest of her is.

nice work.

I don't know, I rather like the textural contrast between her smoothness, the branches' gnarled appearance, and the clouds' slightly ragged appearance. The background doesn't look hastily-done to me.
