Description
Teatime whispered the little crow. We will save time for you madam. Yes, tea is what we will have.Teatime whispered the withered trees. We will calm the breeze for you madam. Yes we will calm the wind for tea.
Teatime whipered the blurry skys. We will hold back the rain for you madam. Yes we will leave out the sun for tea.
Shhhhhh, whispered the madam . It is time for tea.
Well i had so so much fun on this picture. I jsut really dont know what to say, it was inspired by alot of James Christensen's work, and the flemish painters. Dear lord her dress took me forever. Reason for this picture just started out as wanting to draw that dress.......lol......yeh shallow. Well hope you all enjoy.

The rich purple of her gown is stunning, and is set off quite nicely against the autumnal colors in the rest of the piece. And the "peacock's eye" jewels on her skirt are a very nice touch, as are the wings on her back.
Your work seems to be bursting with color, and I like that. Yes, I do like that, very much.

absolutely beautiful, Christensen is one of my favorite artists. I have been trying freehand drawing in photoshop, and this just inspires me to try harder.

I can imagine why you would want to draw that dress! Wow!
I would die and go to heaven to wear something that beautiful.
I think you picked the perfect colors for her skin vs the dress.

um. this is wonderful! was it photoshop you used, or something crazy like painter? did you draw it prehand and scan it in or was it straight on the compy?
i ask this because i just want to know how on earth its possible to create something so beautiful! 
GREAT work!

I have to say it again : you are admirable, and so is your work

wow this is lovely! it looks so amazing and professional. Smooth, but detailed. I adore the dress, so often artists don't portray that kind of lovely old fashioned dress right.
The image overall is so nice too. It's a great composition. Awesome! If I had money, I would definitly get the print~

Damn. Great attention to detail. I love the mood of this piece, how it'sust slightly surreal. I could sit and look at it for a long time.

This is wonderful, from the layout to the tones and contrast, the geometrics and flow, beautiful and well done, and I see the influences you mentioned.

oh I am so so glad you said geometrics, becuase it was my first try at them, I am glad they turned out!

i can't think of anything to say that could possibly justify how cool this is.

The time you spent on this definitly shows. You have done an AWESOME job. Everything seems alot more substantial in this one, compared to your other works. It especially shows in the face.
And how did you do the floor?
π: 0 β©: 1
OH that damn floor was such hell! I had to do all the perspective lines, draw the squares, color them in, then texture the tops individually , oh it was so tedious!

holly crap! That would be... @_@ well, it really looks great

That dress is stunning... looking at all your artwork, I want to go to an old-fashioned masquerade ball!

Your artwork has certainly come along way. Love the details you put into designing and creating the dress.

This is just some excuisite work! Beautifull!
It shows that you spent a lot of time on the dress because of all the details, it really is amazing. The crow and clock and the background are all wonderfully done too!
Although, I would like to know if this was made on the computer or with tradidtional material (I really can't tell!) My guess would be the coputer, but I'm not shure.
btw I LOVE that little tea set

was made in computer, I paint in oil as well, but I just started 2 months ago, so give me a few months and hpefully I will be equally good at each

I hope you will! You already make some expert work on the computer!

Wow! Amazing detail! Especially on the dress, crow and floor 
The curves in the dress, and accessories are exceptional. The colors are very strong looking. You did a great job on making the dress look like fabric. The work on the floor is great. It looks like marble, I'm guessing? I like how you made the reflection of the crow, and think you should of tried reflecting the wall as well. Just a little bit to give a nice affect.
The wall I feel could use more detail or texture, and also a little refinement. I don't know what it is but it's not sitting right with me 
Great job overall. Really getting better and better with each piece of artwork. Iβm so afraid to draw people, so I look at your art in a different manner now

hey thanks xray, I kind of wanted the wall kept simple, because it is behind that dress, but yeh , some of the sketchiness can be fixed
