Description

This piece is probably my most time consumed piece to date. I had given up at one point and left the file to sit and waste space on my hard drive..but thanks to all of those who shared their thoughts and constructive criticism throughout the making, this piece has finally been resurrected! I have developed a backstory and have hinted small bits in both the title and the work itself, but instead of sharing I'll just let you interpret how you want. :)

The dress on her kneels looks weird - something is wrong there (it lacks some more folds or shadow, or it is disproportional) and her head seems a bit too big - but I'm not sure 100%
I like the colors. I think some pattern on her dress could add interest.
Nice details and depth. Good atmosphere. Overall I like it but I think it needs some extra touch.(don't kill me for that!) 8/10

Agree about the bottom of the dress, looks like its just been poured, like liquid, I think it needs some more folds.

Overall I think really like this piece, the rendering is so soft and the atmosphere is great.

Very nice work. Could use some more work on the shadows to make it "pop" more. The birds are a nice detail.

Beautiful pastels, lighting, and background. Agree about the dress.

Absolutely beautiful, absolutely great! The color and light just rock... the expression on her face makes me think she isn't as innocent as she looks at first glance.

Thank you all so much!

I'll study up on the way fabric folds and bends, something I should have done more of beforehand. :o Ah, but we live and learn they say~ Thanks again!

I really like the background and the rocks she's sitting on. The detail and fogginess is very nice. The two birds in the lower corner are a nice little addition too. Nice work! :)
