Small project to survive the boredom of bigger projects ;)

Critiques


:icondaequitas:
well for starters, this one really looks "Real"

and i mean not photo realistic but "humanly".

the amount of detail you have tried and succesfully integrate in to this piece is amazing and very well done
the hair do
the individual threads
the jewelry woven in the hair do the head piece
the necklace even the shadow of all those jewelry has been well thought and applied very realsiticliy

to come to the "person" that i see in this pic; the skin tones their variance and intensity is just about perfect.
you can almost feel that she may actually blush if embarrased right in front of your eyes

the full pink lips are in perfect sync with the hair do+eye make-up
although i am not an expert on such subjects i can only thnik that you have gotten the light source and applied it just the right way to the facial features which in return really makes it solid and caressable

and lastly, the eyes. they are not perfect.
not in line with each other
of center
but those (i dont know if you were trying that effect) little off and wrongs has done so much for this piece that really bring a natural and afore mentioned "humanly" feel to it.
the glare again consistant with the lighting
not overdone
just enough hazy and like a door to her soul where you can feel her emotion in her almost void expression.

thnx for sharing such a beautiful work with us

cheers
burak

First of all I must say that "portraits" as subject seems to be something that you like most and do best. Doing a good portrait takes a lot from the artist since you're usually not showing much of a figure, unless it is a portrait with chair (for instance).
There is much danger that it could turn into something boring that doesn't have much impact on the viewer.

Your figure seems interesting and appealing all over. You used a color variant that is not often seen with this style of portraits. Violet, the color of depression combined with gold is giving her a serious yet noble look, but also strict with a little sadness. Pink also is a pretty unusual hair color for such sort of figure so you totally succeeded in all terms in making this intersting and unique.

But - and here comes why you lost some stars for this rating. Her straight to viewer staring seems pretty artificial. This can be good but it also can be bad. Saying this about a portrait, I have nothing else than the eyes, cause this is what I use to communicate as a human. So when these make me shrug back, I will not look at your portrait for too long, and I will feel uneasy while looking at it, while I feel that you actually wanted to do something that keeps the viewers interest.

When you are agreeing with me, I would suggest you to check the position of pupils and eyelashes. The eyes seem like the same eye painted once and then being flipped, the eyes are also pretty wide open and the pupils aren't that good in pose. Changing this could give this wonderful painting a lot of more impact!

What an exquisite portrait!!! :heart:
You've gotten so amazing! Her skin looks so real, and the texture of the feathers is just wow! What I love the most in this is her jewellry. Whenever I draw gold it looks a bit too fake, but this is just right ^^
