scream I'd fight away all of your f e a r s."

I started working on this work in the... July of 2008
ThenI couldn't as many as today. I found this work on my drive month

This is an absolutely marvelous piece! Indeed one of the best from your gallery.
In my opinion, the concept you selected for this piece made it even harder to portray with a big impact, due to how overdone this particular concept (women in a white dress floating in a sea of lily pads) is. I do however, like the angle and perspective that this image is directed from, as it adds a small element of individuality to the piece.
Regarding the technical skills in this artwork, it is well done. Despite the fact that this manipulation looks to me as if it was fairly simple, I do quite like how you've painted over the hair. I also really like that you cant partially see her dress underwater: this seems to me to be very realistic.
One thing that I think could possibly need improvement is the ripple effect that you created. It is decent and it is obvious that it is intended to be ripples, but it is not quite have the same realistic effect as the rest of the entire piece.
Overall, beautifully done image as well as very appealing to the eye (I love the colors).

What I really like about this is that it looks like an old oil painting. This style really makes this work because it gives the overall feel of the manip this fluid, watery feel which if anyone knows the story of Ophelia, they'll understand just why that is important.
The painted elements in this are expertly done, and only add to the atmosphere of the overall piece. I really love the tones of this piece, especially the hues of the water because it makes the water look inviting, and Ophelia looks so innocent, and this is also very critical to the story of Ophelia.
All this little elements come together to make a truly memorable piece. Lovely work e.deviantart.com/emoticons/h/h⦠" width="15" height="13" alt="

One gorgeous piece! The story of Ophelia is so emotionally deep and very profound, and you have captured it most beautifully in this composition. Excellent! Very fluid, expressive and the details that you have included are the most delicate and on-point!
Wonderful!

It's amazing the way you make her look like she's just floating, like she's gonna open ehr eyes any moment. the detail of this is wow-worthy but the thing i love most is her hands for some reason... perhaps becaus ei find them very hard to draw right and you have done them so delicately and so beautifully

I remembered the song Nick Cave & Kylie Minogue - Where The Wild Roses Grow, in this case, water lilies. Superb.
