This piece is really beautiful.
The colours look great and very lifelike compared to the reference picture but also add up to the fairytale like feeling of the scene.^^

You've got some crazy skills with traditional media! O.O This is also a really great example of using stock/reference photos right; you took the model as reference and made it your own, unique piece! I love the waves in the environment especially.

haha thank you for the wonderful compliment. I'm trying really hard to work and rework my stuff before posting. I would love to do several more paintings by the month's end! I love the models on deviant art, and how they allow us to use their work. Tweaking reference is important to me. I try not create a carbon copy of what the photographer already took

Beautiful painting. Looking at the reference photo you did a wonderful job keeping true to her form. I love how you drew the details in the sand. Excellent job! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks Rob! The models spend the time to create fantastic images for us to you. Whenever I'm drawing the image I find myself spending extra time on the character. I love putting in those extra details. I always think to myself what I can do to make it better.. Although this is no where near perfect, I am happy with the result and hope to continue my painting streak! It would be great if I could finish my current piece in the next few days

That's a wonderful idea ^-^ The effect is gorgeous.
