Taking a glance at this piece alone is like watching the stars in the sky!

It truly illuminates the movement in the piece, making it seem all the more special!

It's timeless and completely redefines the word highlights! Amazing job, you ma'm are truly a stellar artist! I honestly can't find anything wrong with this masterpiece!

However, if there would be anything I believe could be added are a little more pieces of stone or erosion in the scenery, to give it a more three-dimensional earth tone, but that's just what I think.

To sum up everything, you've done an outstanding job incorporating these abstract figures and elements into a true three-dimensional world! Though the main ground could use just a little more erosion on the grass, it's still a true masterpiece nonetheless. Bravissimo!

Wow this a great piece overall, really like the usage of color to create the tone set for this piece. giving the fox like creature in the middle a sort of other worldly sort of effect gives the impression its not quite of this world and has a great fantasy like feel to it with the effects coming out of it. Having the panda in the piece I feel like could be something that can be removed from the piece, but having it in the piece creates a narrative of here the view may question if the panda is a companion or may just happen to stumble upon the fox. I don't have anything more I can say for this piece, its really great overall.

This piece is gorgeous! I love the detail that you put into this painting, and the colors that you used, as well. The blue and green tones really add an eerie and mysterious look to this piece, along with the bluish, glowing hue that you painted behind the fox.

I'm not sure if this was intended, but because of the glowing strands beyond the spirit's eyes, (and the shape of its eye), it looks as if the fox is crying, which adds a bit more depth and emotion to this piece. I personally like it, though some people probably wouldn't.

I also love how you made the clouds revolve around the fox, as if they and all the other plants are interested in the spirit. The only problem that I could have with this piece is the panda. Although the panda is very cute, it seems sort of out of place here, since there are so many things centered around the fox. However, the panda's expression is really fitting, and again, displays a sense of awe and wonder at such a mysterious creature.

All in all, this is a beautiful piece! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>

Great visual balance, colors, and flow. I won't talk too much about technique as it's quite well orchestrated.

I have mixed feelings about the panda though -- his cartoonish depiction contrasts with the majesty of the rest of the image. He feels out of place within the magical environment, comparatively inane to the wonders happening around him. Yet his presence adds a feeling of familiarity, makes the viewer feel comfortable in an otherwise alien fantasy. And his rapt expression of complete fascination is kinda... cute?

The simplistic two-shade way you've created the clovers also feels a little out of place in such a ethereal setting and yet again they allow the viewer to feel at ease. Rather counterintuitively, their simple nature makes the image that much more real to the viewer.

Your blend of cool colors sets a nice tune of ambiance to the piece. The contrast of the bright cyans against the dark fox fur creates a pleasing eye-catcher that instantly draws your attention. The added details of the adorable panda, plants, light, rocks, stars, floating light specks, and reflection of the water all make this enjoyable to look at.

However, the left-hand side of the piece (in collation with the right) has me a bit confused. The bushes deserve either more detail or blurred effect like the right side. It left me wondering if they were clouds or shrubbery.

You used alot of skill to draw this and it took alot of vision I bet to figure out how to draw this just right. It is very original in the style. I love how you drew the little kawaii panda in the background peeking out of the bush. I just absolutely love the glowing effect and especially since it's blue (I love blue). It is a very gorgeous work of art/masterpiece I wish I could draw like you I also like how you drew the plants growing around the fox's body it accentuates the fox's appearance. The background is beyond words the beautiful night sky, the bushes, the flowers, the pond just all very gorgeous.

The backlight of the fox had a really good effect on the picture. I don't know why you placed the panda there though, since pandas are likely to stay with bamboo trees and/or their parents, but I see you're going for a fantasy type of feel there so it's more or less okay.

The starry background that matches the fox's body is also a good addition though the river seems not like a river, perhaps if you sharpen it a bit? But if you were going for running water (I expected the side of the river/lake/body of water/ to be still), it's also fine.

All in all, the picture sends the feeling you want it: Fantastical, mysterious sort of atmosphere. It's a wonderful work of art, keep it up!

This drawing is a beautiful piece of art, it seems that you put too much effort on it, i love how you put those lights out of its eyes, the water is really amazing too like the reflection, this really captures the meaning and the feeling of the night, i have seen works similar to this but it has a certain thing that makes it different

For me , the light is the best part of this drawing, it almost looks like im watching real neon lights on my pc, just keep going and do your best in every work you do e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="391" title=" (Smile)"/>.

Well, the image has the best contrast I´ve ever seen on these kind of draws, the technique was perfect and the plants effects are awsome! Being honest, the panda is cute :3. Anyway, the animal with the glowing eyes is cool, because the abstract lights made it to take the best position on this picture and very good final sky draw, I can not describe this, it´s too awsome e.deviantart.net/emoticons/w/w… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="387" title=" (Wink)"/> I´m gonna cry ;_; but I´m still impressed by the water reflects and the rest is ok, Hope to see more of this kind of things, I can sure you a watch and a llama :3

Very cool

The colors are well blended together, the background is simply splendid! I can tell great amounts of time and effort have been put into this piece. The panda bear, in the clouds, is simply adorable! He/she is so cute e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=" (Big Grin)"/> the sky is beautiful and radiantly lovely, it gives off this vibe, but not an aggressive vibe, but a calm yet gentle vibe that shows great character and accomplishment, the creatures put into this piece are simply portrayed as something truly amazing! And I would be very happy to congradulate you on a splendid job well done. Keep on the rocking work, and smile you an amazing and freaking awesome person! e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=" (Big Grin)"/>

To start off i think yo are dong an am zig job at improving yor sklls andtechnique with thg training yo are reuieving. Yet to makg a greater effect i would hae added a little bi ofmore texture to thg wolf's/fox fur to enphasize thg beautiful light coming from it's eyeh and brows. I think that it is a very nice idea of making the Panda pop out from the clouds as well, everything has a very smooth and finished look to it, yet the only thing that will bother me is the water. Compared to the rest of the artwork it just looks a little blunt to me, since it seems as you barely blended to create the light effect the water just sticks out from that, and remember the reflection of an object hat doesn't give light off has a darker hue when reflected. But overall this is amazing and I think it is super cute!

I shall choose your piece as my first critique e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=" (Big Grin)"/>
When I saw this work in my folden, the preview looked absolutely charming. I especially like the layout, with the pond reflecting light in front, the fox spirit being our focus, and the panda and fairytale-style clouds in the back. Overall, I believe the artwork gives off a mysterious and elegant feeling to viewers. One improvement I would suggest is to add more contrast to colours in the clouds to show depth, rather than a wall of neatly lined clouds. Still lacking experiences in creating critiques, so please note me if you choose to not agree with my views.

Ok this is the first critique i make so... here i go!

this painting is a little abstract, but somehow when i see it is like WOW im watching a star fountain, the starry sky fits so good with the fox. i like the clouds

but my favourite thing is the shading and the lightning, specially the reflexions in the water(even if them are a little blurry). The blue lights in my opinion,they seems like liquid magic. but the point is this painting is huge and awesome!

ok, about the drawing, you traced very well, is hard (and needs a LOT of patience) to draw every single detail, like you did, in the leafs of the grass, i wonder if you did a lineart first and then coulor. However, i feel some sadness i the eyes of the fox

ater all is a very nice painting e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="" data-embed-type="emoticon" data-embed-id="366" title=" (Big Grin)"/> i like your style <3
