Description
I hit an idea last november where I should start 2018 by doing one drawing inspired by something relevant on the on going month, and that came to be because I participated in a group's acticity where we built a calendar in between 12 artists... So this is my June or July's idea. Needless to say the first idea never came to be, I've had a very rough start of year and is not coming to better terms with me xD But I'll keep trying, in the meantime, have a wet summer girl, I loved doing the raindrops, tedious as it may seem to be, it was relaxing instead, monotone and soothing

Jajajajajaj gracias?
Alguna vez hace años vi las revistas y dos muchachas que amo con mi corazón son fans, así que sí, la verdad es que de ahí saqué otro estilo de dibujo de cuando me piden que les dibuje cosas xD
A mí tambien me gusta mucho, la lluvia fue muy relajante de hacerse, aún no entiendo como tengo paciencia para estas cosas pero no para otras... c'est la vie

Hello, I came here from the ProjectComment
An awesome picture. It immediately caught my attention in the ProjectComment gallery. From the thimbnail it is not quite apparent what exactly is going on there (thanks to the vague background and the transparent umbrella), but that only helped to awaken my curiosity.
I think the basic idea of showing the character in the rain from above, through the transparent umbrella is priceless; I think I have never seen this used before and it works really great. The umbrella first draws attention to its centre, but it is well balanced by other significant focal points – her face and her boots (thanks to their distinctive colour). Her facial expression really adds a lot to the picture, she looks so excited in the rain, watching the raindrops falling on her umbrella, but at the same time looking at the observer, captivating by her wide open eyes.
Also I like the raindrops, they are really well done. And I fully understand your comment that drawing them was not tedious but relaxing, I often do such things in my picture.
One thing I am not sure about is the background, apparently an ordinary view of rain in "normal" perspective. On the one hand, as I said, it caught my attention in the first place, but when looking closely on the picture, it just does not really fit and a more realistic background (I mean something simple such as wet ground, maybe with some puddles) might work better.
Anyway it is great and I really like the composition and the whole idea and execution. Well done!

Hi there
Welcome to my gallery and thanks so much for taking the time to write me your opinion 
Hahahaha, that's a new one. I haven't seen the thumbnail myself but if it can peek anyone's curiosity, it is quite effective ;D
Thank you. I love rainy days and I long to get one of those umbrellas to myself to be able to look at the sky when it pours, so I wanted to share the idea, tho using a girl is always better because they're cute ;D I loved your description of her, I didn't had that first thing in mind, although yes, it's something I wanted to achieve!
Yes, that's a common suggestion, I think it was too much to try and make it kind of surreal, I'm definitely adding those puddles
Thanks again, I'm really pleased you liked my work nvn Hope to see ya around, have a great day ahead!

Hola! Yo provengo de
Te has mandado un extraordinario dibujo!
La posición anatómica escogida, el efecto de lluvia que has plasmado, el diseño-anatomía y expresión de la chica son de lo mejor, el como ayuda a que el paraguas sea totalmente claro para mostrar ese despliegue de pureza en las manchas de agua y que le dan el foco de atención de diez a esta magnifica obra
Y por supuesto, los colores escogidos cuadran bien, equilibran bien, los contrastes y juego de sombras que se contrastan como el de la ropa son geniales
Lo único que se corregiría aunque no es necesario es la forma de la lluvia. Por la posición de la chica, que es mirando hacia arriba, quedaría mejor que lloviera en plan circular para que de esa sensación de lluvia en lugar de hacerla en el plano normal. No se si me explique bien porque no tengo siquiera boceto, pero mi punto es que sea algo parecido a este icono
Pero en definitiva, te has mandado un extraordinario dibujo
Sigue así!
Valio la pena revisar la pagina de para encontrarte

Hola! Que gustazo leerme mi idioma natal para variar, gracias por tomarte el tiempo
Y muchas gracias por todos los halagos, se aprecian mucho uvu. Si, ese es un punto recurrente en las sugerencias que recibo; la verdad es que yo quería que el fondo fuera como borroso, sin importancia y ajeno a ella, quería que el punto focal fuera el paraguas y la lluvia y que nada más importase, pero creo que se me fue un poco la mano y en especial con las gotas del fondo
AH! ¿eres seguidor de CuKa?
Gracias por buscarme xD

First off, I really like the idea you did with making it one of that transparent umbrellas, that was creative and a nice way of being able to show the girls expression and body language. Next, the raindrops on the umbrella are really well done, you did a great job in making it look realistic as if it actually was splattering against the umbrella while still preventing it from obscuring the view on the girl. Speaking of the girl, her expression is really adorable to look at, with a goofy smile and her hair all scattered around. It is also nice to see some of the strands of hair fall all around her and even some going down on the side of the bench. That was a nice little detail. Her pose is really expressive, looking relaxed and cute with a wide smile like she's just enjoying being there which gives her a lot of character to her. If there's one thing I'd criticize its a nitpick I had about her lower body. I kind of feel that since its raining and her legs aren't covered by the umbrella then they should be wet since it kind of looks like its only raining on the spot with her umbrella.

Hi there, thank you so much for taking the time to write me a comment, I appreciate it a lot!
And thank you so much for your kind words, I love to know that many of the things I wanted to express are being read all around her. I loved the making of the drops in the umbrella, maybe it can look tiring at first, but it was ver relaxing to me. Thank you for noticing the details you've mentioned, I thought those were the little bricks to build a nice image!
And YES! Thank you, I completely forgot to add the drops on her boots, but you're absolutely right! I'll work the bench too for that matter
Thanks again for stoping by and I hope you have a wonderful day ahead

Hi I'm from Project Comment!
I really love the idea for this painting--it's so cool and I feel that you executed it really well! Your ability to do foreshortening is really good and the way you conveyed the body language and facial expression is tops. One thing that throws me off is that the raindrops all falling toward her from the sky, but when you drew them in the background they all fall straight down. Something you could do is edit the perspective on the boot pattern so it goes along with the actual boot--though I get why that would be tedious and it's not something that takes away from the image as a whole. I love your combination of hard and soft shading--especially with the clothing! But on the face near the mouth it looks like you shaded that part darker instead of lighter since the light is coming from straight above. Another small detail could just adding shadows from the umbrella skeleton on her!
Overall it looks really great!!!

Hello, and welcome!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write me a comment, I appreciate it much
And thanks also for all the positive points. Yes, the background doesn't combine with the actual raindrops; originally I thought about doing those drops converge in the center as supposed from the AoV, right? But I didn't like it, because it meant I had to do a defined background, maybe draw the road and some waves on the pond behind her and some reflectance... It sounds nice, and I'll try, but for this particular piece, I wanted her to be the main focus, as if she was suspended in the very moment she looks up to the sky and nothing behind her matters...
I'm definitely trying the background now
Ah! I didn't thought of those, yes! I'll add some shadows and revise the face too, thanks!
Thanks again for coming by, hope you have a great day ahead

No problem! I'm from ProjectComment .
I know that the comments should be longer and more detailed. But hey, your work is more than wonderful! The character is great, the environment is terrific, the whole scene is really nice and I like this picture. I hope that's all said.

at first I thought she was levitating but now I realize this is taken from above. Mind blown! The drop patterns are beautiful and go away from the center. It should have made me realize this is taken from above but the direction of the rain fooled me into thinking she was levitating sideways. The only thing that bugs me is the color palette, and even concerning that, I'm not sure why. The combination of purple and green works, but they are such bright colors that it makes me think of toys rather than real clothes.

HI! Thanks for stoping by to comment.
I never thought of it that way, levitating, you must have a very unique way to see the world!. It's true I didn't mind combining the raindrops of the background with the actual drops on the umbrella and that turned out to be unsettling, but I liked that, especially because it calls one attention to look for details, I have to say that was a trap ;D
But you're right, the palette is somewhat unsettling too.
I worked long trying different combinations but none satisfied me completely, except for this one, but yes, I've been told I should try softer hues in my drawings, I tend to prefer brightly saturated ones 
Thanks a lot for stopping by! Hope you have a great day

Very nice - original, well done technically, love the perspective, and the transparent effect of the umbrella.

This is a nice and unique perspective on the subject. Cool.

Thank you! Although is kind of surrealistic because the background and the object are placed at opposite directions, I liked that effect a lot!

¡Me encanta la perspectiva que le diste, bro...!
El efecto de lluvia quedó genial, al primer vistazo me confundió un poco porque vi las líneas blancas que atraviesan verticalmente el dibujo como si fueran las gotas de lluvia, pero sólo es parte de un fondo ¿no? La imagen es sí es una vista desde arriba
Creo que será Julio, puesto que me tocó Junio y tú seguías de mí xDDDD
Saludos.

Gracias!
Yo también la disfruté mucho, es divertido mirar al cielo mientras llueve, la correspondiente vista era la mejor opción
AH!
Si, esas líneas son como fondo un poco surrealista >,> Ahora entiendo porqué me decía alguien que esas líneas eran perpendiculares a las gotas de agua y yo entendía un carajo xD Supongo que se habría visto mejor con lluvia desde el centro y hacia afuera, si, habría hecho sentido... AGH ni modo
¿Ah si? Asunto resuelto entonces, gracias xD
Y hace sentido, como que Julio me gusta, no me veo pidiendo junio

I LOVE the concept and composition. The girl's colors really pop, the rain and background are gorgeous, the posing is A+ and the whole thing is very creative. This one goes in my inspiration favourites.
Realistically, the umbrella shaft + webbing should probably have more parts to it, but that'd get in the way of the composition

I'm super proud of this one and absolutely flattered you liked it this much, thanks!
I know XD At least the handle should show somewhere, but I'll cheat saying its hidden behind her stretched arms
Yes.. I wanted the raindrops to be just background not necessarily the things at her back
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Perhaps use one of the speedline brushes or the radial snap option to make the background raindrops converge on her umbrella. That could be interesting.

A very interesting perspective! I like rain themes; all the better that this one is so unique.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you!
I share the liking, there's something very calming about rain that makes it all the better to draw it
I don't own a see-through umbrella but it's something I'd love to get to be able to see the sky when it rains, also to stare at rain through a window celling has to be the best
