Your artwork is amazing! What is your medium? It looks like colored pencils sometimes and sometimes like watercolors.

My fave of yours so far...and I think THE Fave of mine of yours...Can I make it my Profile pic here on DA? I understand if I can't...but it kinda reminds me of me. Plus my name means 'like a bird'. Or maybe I'm just being sentimental.

It looks different of what you use to draw, but it's as good as the rest of your artworks! (I prefer to remark this because sometimes "different" is confused with "worse", and I really hate this overlaping on those terms xDD)
I love all the little details you've put here, like the pearls, the decoration of the mask or the curtain... and the tattoo bird (I love bird tattoos!!)
But the best of this drawing is the gesture and facial expression of the girl, very coquete and suggestive, being sexy with the exact touch of shyness... Lovely!!

Hey,thank you very much again dear!It's very interesting you find this different from my usual,i would very much like to know in what way because i too find something not very familiar about it everytime i look at it.
Other than that (which i do understand that you didn't mean in a bad way,don't worry

I don't know how to explain it xD
Let's see... first, the girl: usually your girls ahve a more relaxing adn calm pose/expression, they can look happy/sad/mysterious/friendly... but always with serenity and 'proportion'. They aways remember me to the Jane Austen's characters, where the elegance and measurement are the best and most outstanding qualities.
Of course this girl, and the whole composition, have elegance, but she hasn't that measurement on her emotions, she is more playful than your other girls... And it is reflected in her face, with her lips open in a rising laugh; and in her pose, that plays with her nudity, catching the attention of the viewer.
I think this can be applicable to the rest of the composition. In general, your illustrations are elegant, neat, even minimalist. The measurement and harmony are always there with a few details, traces and colors. Here you've put a lot of details, the colors have more intensity and the backgroung is plentier than wat you use to do. The elegance is still there, but there's also more 'energy' and vitality... I'm not sure if those words fits very well xD
Well, I've written a lot... hope it can be understandable!

This is gorgeous! I love how you used the watercolor, and the colors themselves - everything's so delicate and soft. I want her hair! And that mask...
I'm going to have to step it up if I want my entry to hold a candle to yours!
