Wow. I really like the concept behind this piece and the way it was executed. The contrast between the snow and the dark, gloomy colours used for the girl's clothing and the incorporation of the crows really strengthen the image. The same goes for the cracks in the old tree that seem to resemble the perhaps broken or withering state of the character here.
The emphasis of the black and 'white' (muted tones) really brings out the dark, depressing feel of the picture. Usually, when I think of white and snow I think of purity, or of a "cleansing/rebirth". When winter passes and spring comes, it is a new beginning... But the dark contrast here makes the snow seem very bleak, almost like an ending.
The flocking of the crows takes away from the purity and innocence of the whiteness around her, and her dark clothing bring down the mood even further.
Hmm, I like the way you drew the chord from the heart and left certain parts 'dripping' almost like an overused robe. It really brings this feeling of exhaustion and hardship.
This image really speaks, and its execution was well-thought out and very strong. I know you were trying to achieve a very frozen look to the image, but I feel a little sense of 'semi-warmth' from the colour palette used. It's a muted sort of warmth, but the way you applied the whites in some areas balances it out with cold. ^_^

Oh my! My apologies, but I meant "overused rope" not "robe". ^_^ Sorry if that confused you, ehehe.
But still, great job on the painting!

dark as it may be, but that's what makes it so amazing
Your idea is incredible as always, fabulous work.
I love how you did a suburb job with the shading, again as always; but here it considerably appears identical to winter. You really did a beautiful job executing it

Looking through the comments of this work, I can't help but see that no matter what I say, it will have been said before. But I always like to leave a comment on art I love ^^
The composition is perfectly balanced- my rather untrained eye sees absolutely nothing out of place. You captured the mood perfectly- the dull color lends a very depressing tone to the piece, and works perfectly with the heart on the ground. Also, the crows were a perfect choice, considering all the symbolism attached to them
all in all, everything you already knew, but hey, who am I to arbitrarily decide you don't want long presumptuous comments like mine ^^

I love the texture of the crows' wings in contrast to Olivia. The only thing I'm not dropdead in awe of is the tree- it seems so deeply textured like a rock. A beautiful, beautiful thing.
