I love the energy her hair gives to this painting. It dances around the bottom half of the canvas to add a lot of whimsy, a lot of motion and movement to the composition; it guides your eyes along in different directions and makes it really dynamic. But while it's pleasantly chaotic, it's never cluttered. You don't get lost or confused, but your eyes get to dance along with it. I love that sense of energy you've infused in the hair.

It's probably made stronger by the more sedate and calm mood the girl herself is in. She's got this calm, quiet air to her; deliberately so, never blank, and it works really well. Her eyes are big and hold a lot of personality to them. There's this...not necessarily shyness, but this quiet, maybe careful or wary, hint behind them.

I love the texture the painting gave it. It adds an organic feel to it, and I think that texture adds to the mood. I think if everything were slick and smooth, you wouldn't feel the calm, quiet, almost somber emotion in this pic as strongly -- I think the texture helps you empathize with her more. And of course, whatever the media, you use it well to give depth and volume to the face, the arms, the dress -- everything.

I love your art! The recipient of this painting is a lucky person because it's lovely. Great job. : )
