first of all, I think it would have been very selfish of you to have kept it for yourself. This was very worth waiting! I'm glad you posted it here. This is (and I'm sure I already told you that once for one of your pieces) my favorite of yours. It almost looks like a foto. The girl is so beautiful, I really like her outfit, the cloak and the white thing.... it's awesome. I wish I could point some flaws but I can't find any. Wow.... I'm speechless. +9

Azurelle  09/14/06 @999

And I'm dead you know XD I'm tired as heck and I worked my * off in the last days... I am so hoping for the 17th to be over because this means finally some time for relaxing with no major deadlines XD But I'm still glad that you like it

alebrije  09/14/06 @001

Nice work! +8/8

bluemonkey  09/14/06 @053

kinda awekward stance.. who walks like that? the foot doesnt really look like its actually in the grass, but instead stepping on the side of the grass blades... and she has really good balance... unless.. shes levetating?

Daykan  09/14/06 @054

just love it!!! beautiful!!

JordanRoots  09/14/06 @078

I assumed she was levitating..... but bluemonkey says she's walking.... I don't know what to think now Forgot to mention, the buildings in the background really add something to the whole painting, I like them. It gives a little idea of the era, of the time. between, will you post a making of it? That'd be great.

Andy--Jones  09/14/06 @082

Like the foliage a lot. the woman is also well painted. I get the impression she is floating. Nice addition of modern civilisation in the background.

Inabottle  09/14/06 @088

I agree with blue monkey the foot doesnt really feel like its in the grass... Other than that I love the image the background the foilage look wonderful, her outfit is also wonderfully detailed. Very nice!

Imirie  09/14/06 @093

I thought she was floating, too.. It's very pretty, and I love the foliage.

loneorbit  09/14/06 @105

Well detailed through out this piece, shows you put much effort into it. Left side is either bushes or tree tops just poking over the top of a cliff side, which creates a feeling that path she is following is near to that edge. It gives that impression because the grasses stop abruptly, which creates that pathway. Cliffside comes from the dark area between where the grass ends and trees begin, which is why they seem to be just tops of trees rather than a whole tree. Nice job overall.

Akebono  09/14/06 @108

Yup -she's floating.But I see the same problem I'm running in most of times when I concentrate on main part of image and later try to fit it in the background.Or vice-versa. It just does not "interact" with the rest of work.In here I get a feeling like she is "glued" to foliage filtered picture or painted(very well) part of a forest.Aside from that-I am personally giving it a highest score I can. Very,very well done.Hats off to You...

ARZILLIER66  09/14/06 @146

Nice work! I like the colors

Madanapale  09/14/06 @154

Beautiful work!...top marks from me! Carlos

woow awesome character design i like the cloth. +10/10

Azurelle  09/14/06 @349

Hey guys, she's floating; flying, descending, however you might call it - but not walking Thank you all for the nice critiques BTW

Vamp4444  09/14/06 @350

Beautiful! 10+

lolita  09/14/06 @401

pawlack  09/14/06 @406

I like the background well done Rest as usual - awesome +10

deManuel  09/14/06 @418

Great work +9/10

klungsama  09/14/06 @453

This is really great! My only crit would have to be that the enviroment looks a bit more realistic than the actual girl, so they don't go that well together.. But I love it, glad you posted it!!

Wallace  09/14/06 @492

you know I like this Lovely detail and the girl is a superjob You might want to drop a few grassthingies in front her, to blend her into the background some more + 10

LobsterHead  09/14/06 @498

That face is just stunning! For some reason her right arm looks a little odd, not wrong anatomically, I think it's the way the cloak covers part of it. It hides the shape of the arm a bit. Damn good picture though Top marks!

waheednasir  09/14/06 @505

thats a nice one Seline...i esp. like the foliage.... and that small elephant (bottom left) is very cute....

beatrizmatar  09/14/06 @593

Beautiful¡¡¡¡¡¡¡+10

acidlullaby  09/14/06 @638

is this the girl in your avatar? All your characters have this rather distinctive Azurelle look, which is cool because it's very beautiful! Crit: the arms look a little too short so it detracts from the elegance of the character. Also, are the hands mirrored? I have mirrored features in the past so I'm not complaining, but it's just that.. you can tell it's mirrored, which is never a good thing. All in all, very cool image.

NoxiouS  09/14/06 @722

Very beautiful!!!

thienbao  09/14/06 @821

It's a beautiful piece, but at least mention it if you've referenced another painting.http://www.xahlee.org/Periodic_dosage_dir/lacru/_p/William_Bouguereau/Evening_Mood_1882.jpg

Dementor3D  09/14/06 @831

perfect! love you baby ;-P

JordanRoots  09/14/06 @879

I did not want to see that link thienbao.... what's the matter anyway, anyone can use references, I don't consider this a copy.

acidlullaby  09/14/06 @888

Azurelle  09/14/06 @900

thienbao, you should read descriptions more careful.

eshine  09/15/06 @057

Stunning painting! I thought she is floating too, I love it! I thought at first the city in the bg was kind of strange but then to me, I imagine a future where magic is prevalent and the ones who wield it are worshipped... (ah imagination ) Top marks, added to my favourites

sdavis75  09/15/06 @080

Overall an excellent piece. Wonderful details on both the main subject and the background. Her expression is killer! One crit: while I understand she is floating, something about the foot just doesn't look right to me. But again, nice work. +9

Azurelle  09/15/06 @089

Yeah I suck with feet. Even with reference I am not able to paint them properly. Maybe I should study the anatomy of this part of the body a bit more to get an understanding of what I am exactly painting. In order to create something that doesn't just look like the ref but also fits in into my own work! :/

Maidith  09/15/06 @633

Very pretty. <3 Her face is perfect as always I think you have developed a pretty good eye for drawing figures, anatomy, etc. (I wish I could draw people too, hehe) The trees in the background, however, still look like some kind of "brush-stamping", rather than actual trees to me. I think it's the foliage. The sky is good, and so is the grass, but I'd still soften it at some places. It seems to be sharp everywhere, stealing the focus from the other elements. Allover, this is good anyway and you really keep getting better, so I'm gonna give you 8 of 9 points. Kristina

kittyKat  09/15/06 @699

my first impressions shes floating... and the hands look like one another... like you took one and flipped it for the other.. its an odd pose to be off the side of a city looking like riding hood.. and floating maybe if you had her skipping through a field and got rid of the city in the background and added a castle or something it would work.. dunno.. she has a pretty face though *edit* I made this comment before reading your description, now that I read it. its spelled: Bouguereau 'evening mood' now I can see where you got the hands and pose / floating.. idea http://www.xahlee.org/Periodic_dosage_dir/lacru/William_Bouguereau.html

tigaer  09/15/06 @719

awwwww man i really dig the light look of this painting. everything looks so smooth and soft. your painting style works very good in every of your works.

cupcake  09/15/06 @823

Very Good the face is so soft . well done

SubKult  09/15/06 @871

A Stunning piece of work. Nice and clean and great detail. Though I can't decide if I like the cityscape, part of me feels its out of context to the rest of the scene IMHO.

theClairvoyant  09/16/06 @158

honestly i think the work on the tree is more impressive then the character.

TreKKer  09/16/06 @335

I like your Girls. Full points for that Drawing.

SeanyD  09/16/06 @430

Awesome work here, definently your best in my opinion. I would prefer it without the cityscape but thats just me. Nothing to really crit unless i was being snobby. top marks 10/10

klyph  09/16/06 @445

I'm so late! *eek!* I'm glad you shared this, it's beautiful. My favorite part has to be her feet, nicely done!

blackshad  09/16/06 @522

Albtraum  09/17/06 @218

Uh, yeah. It's got breasts. LOL.

WarrenLouw  09/17/06 @734

Very nice Seline! i love your style of faces. 1 small concern though... the bottom half of her cloak seems to fade into the backround too much. aside from that, its a great artwork from you.

Cigaro  09/18/06 @002

she is sooooo pretty seriously,... anatomy looks peachy aswell, only crit i have is that those sleeves look too big, large i mean, making the arms look shorter...but anywho...awesome job...the bg is extremely realistic btw

minkens  09/18/06 @414

jup jup...another nice image *thumbs up*

pegahoul  09/18/06 @424

Wonderful pic! Yeah between foot and grass is off, but never mind that ^^ I like the white clothes and hair

Awesome, love it . . . . Wish I could give it more than 5 points, adore the rendering of her face and hair, nicely painted foliage 2 . . . . Top stuff.

GingerLatte  02/09/07 @081

This is definitely my favorite of your works. I would have picked a shorter title heh but you're the artist so dont pay attention to a thing i say. i <3 it +10

NimfabebeAida  03/18/07 @401

I like the colors and the old look

SBGothik  03/31/07 @923

I love the rough, painted feel you have to your works. I honestly think it gives them more of a traditional feel with still having a bit of that modernistic style in the model's features and background placement. Beautiful work.

RustyWings  07/16/07 @861

This is my fav picture of your art work. I LOVE it!

mementomori  01/12/08 @010

the face, hair and environment is gorgeous ^^

lillyfly06  08/04/08 @860
