This piece is very stunning.
The symmetry in the background is done very well. The background and foreground were positioned nicely in comparison to one another. I especially like the placement of the trees standing behind the model, which draw the viewers eyes towards her.
The colour is gorgeous and sticks to the scheme chosen.
The editing is outstanding and clearly took time to get it this way.
Everything looks to have a purpose.
Finally, the overall theme remains throughout the entire piece.
Excellent work indeed.

However, the poll in the lower left corner seems off.
The shadow doesn't appear to match the light direction, and the poll itself doesn't look to have the same realism as the rest of the piece. It also seems to be pushed too far to the side, and should be pulled closer into the picture.
Other than that, this piece is breath taking.

Keep up the good work.

After looking over this piece of art a few times it seems to have a great vision and overall a great choice of colors and layers. But there is a few things that can be improved,for an example the the torch was really the last thing I saw because the picture is really focused to the model and the orb of light she's holding. I personally thought this would be better without the bushes in the background,when you first look at the bushes you can think it can be multiple things..like for an example a large leaf pile.
But other than that this piece seems to have multiple great textures,good contrast when you look towards the trees,and a overall great concept.

well, please don't get attention about the star of this rate. (i don't really use these), really.

it was cool awesome,
for those combination quite stunning,
but i think (maybe) the object a lil too contrast<
she have ( i mean that girl as an object ) different tone than other object those youw as use on this picture,

beside no light in the front, the object need to toned in 1 theme like the background toned.
but for the technique you're so awesome.
your work very soft and smooth,
totally it's awesome, you don;t really need to try a thing what i said,
just keep your good work! good luck!

This work of art is simply amazing! The colors blend together nicely and just looking at it sends shivers down my back! it looks very mystical with the orb of light shes holding! Her dress is very beautiful and the background is gorgeous as well! Everything just looks too real like im actually in the painting, i know i said that last time but its true!!!! I just cant explain how much i love this beautiful work of art! The forest scene makes it just seem all the more magical. This work of art is just too pretty for anyone not to like it!

I really like this work, the shades of purple and blue give a very cold and calm feeling. It has a very mystic feel to it. The composition here doesn't really fit though.. because it pulls attention to the exact middle of the picture. Also, the hair looks very stiff and that makes it look face-ish. Maybe a different hairstyle would have fitted better. The orb give off a very mystical feeling, but the dove seems a little unneeded here, because it draws the attention away from the subject. The torch in the front also isn't really needed, it makes it look like you wanted to make something pretty and you kept on finding things you liked, so you just put them all in there.
The overall image is still very pretty, but there's definitely room for improvement.

First off you can tell right away that this is a good piece, The color scheme has a very nice blend and flow to it. Most of the resources are very well put together, although the torch on the left stands out a bit much making it seem a bit unrealistic. Try feathering the shadows and maybe making the torch itself bit more sharp. Also, It's very hard to determine the light source because it looks like its coming from underneath the model, but also from the two paths on either side. That makes it a bit hard to place a good shadow without an actual reference.

Overall this is a great piece and it is very well constructed in theme and the colors are fantastic.

HELLO!

wow a very beautiful and amazing piece of artwork. I like the positioning of how she's standing and the look in her eyes. The shade of blues are very good. The background is very detailed and it makes it look like a very professional piece of work. The dress has a lot detail that seems like it was complicated to do. The slight pink adds to it and making it even better. The vision of the drawing is clear to see, the originality is there and the technique is very well done. It has a lot of impact in this

I love the vivid colors of this piece especially all of the blues and purples. This is a very professional piece and is manipulated very well. Everything flows seamlessly and I love that about manipulations. If I have to offer one thing to help make this piece even better, I would advise you to add some contrast in the piece. If you pop in a little green in the background/ forest then it would add the appropriate contrast to make this piece stand out even more. Other then the contrast, I don't think you have to add, or remove for that matter anything from this manipulation.

Every time I do a critique it ends up being your work without me even realizing it XD. Anyway, this is a beautiful piece; these colors have always been my favorite together, and the dress kind of reminds me of my prom dress. Anyway, This picture has beautiful colors that grab the viewers attention, especially the warmer colors pulling your eye towards the bird and her dress, also her face. However, Her hair looks fake or like it was drawn on because of the way it is positioned. Maybe it it was laid flatter on her neck or more like a ponytail is rested. Her face is also too pink for my liking, but I love the fog at the bottom and the whole concept of this picture is wonderful! Just go easy on the vibrant colors on the skin and work with the hair a little more and it would be perfect in my eyes!

I think its exelent how you handled this picture.
The colors are very bright and beautiful.They blend very nicely with the girl.
Also you helped the girl to stand out even that the colors of her dress are the same as on the backround she still steals the picture.Its a really amazing pice of work.
I love the emotions on this picture,the show softness and romance but still they hide something sad, with make this picture even more beautiful
You made an exelent job on this one and i cant wait to see more good job e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

This is an excellent piece! My favorite thing about this is how the lady in the picture seems to be a part of the dream world around her. The matching colors of the background and the person really accomplish this. Beautiful choice of colors too. Purple, blue, and pink together give a magical feeling to the picture. The sphere is very eye catching and I love how the dove seems to manifest from the orb like the person is imagining the bird as it takes form in this serene, fantasy world. The forest and the dove really help to reinforce the peaceful feeling of the scene. The title you selected serves the work well. This is my favorite piece I have seen so far in your gallery.

Very nice, almost sweet job. Why sweet?

Well, these colors like purple, pink, or blue dopant in different gammach, gives the effect of the sweetness and childish. The dress is a great show. Very nice bird and shiny sphere she is holding in her arms. I would have clung little face, I turned out to be very pink and looks a bit like a big candy with a lot of juice in the middle, which is about to explode its essence of taste and we smash their unearthly sweetness. Work is generally very good, the only thing you will face is too pink, forest, nearby trees or dress form is perfect. Super vision, I like it.

Then i really like her lovely face, with her darker hairs she looks really realistic, even if you did a lot of work on it :3
Love the dress ! She's really beautiful, the texture, the shade make it so awesome.

A unique image that captures the essence of spirituality and magic, it is inspiring and well thought out, I love color scheme which produces the blue and violet tint in the image (Not to mention that violet is one of my favorite colors), this image makes me think of Narnia in a few aspects but that doesn't trouble me at all, this will make an impact in showing people the calm and collective nature of the model, the dove in her hand also adds to her sweet and gentle nature. A truly remarkable piece of art that should be more appreciated e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

Well, now! This looks like this could really gain some ground here! Let's get down to it, shall we?

Vision: Epic choice of background, lots of blue and purple, lots of life to be seen. Definitely something to behold here! Four and-a-half stars.
Originality: Something like this doesn't come along every day. In fact, you might even say it's got it's own kind of uniqueness to it. Four stars.
Technique: A little bit of retouching and editing from the Photoshop never hurt anyone, I think. Four stars.
Impact: People are going to look at this and smile! Four stars.

Given all that, I believe this is a fine piece of work, and I long to see more from you. I wish you all the best!

Wow this is very beautiful. The thing that catches my attention at first is the vibrant colors. The ethereal blue and violet suggest mystery and a kind of otherworldliness. I also like how the light is reflecting off the rocks in the background. The girls face looks peaceful yet she looks mildly puzzled at what it happening in her hands. This is a really good photo manipulation, the shadows on her shoulder and the trees are done very well. The overall impact is great and holds the viewer in a kind of trance. Very good job, this is an awesome piece of work.

A unique approach to a frozen forest. That's the best part of this piece, and I love that the most. The colors also take my breath away, they are very vibrant and exciting without being an eyesore. The placement of the girl is also well done, just as the placement of the orb and the bird.

However, it's her hair. Hair falls down naturally, even when it is covered in snow. And also, hair doesn't pass through your body; the flaw with the hair is it looks like it's trying to go into the girls dress. Also, it would be nice if you made it look more like actual hair.

Overall, the colors, the placement of the subjects in this piece and a unique approach to a frozen wasteland make this a good photo manip, however the hair needs more work.
