Description Reaching fragile fingers up towards the glorious light
She, fallen angel encompassed in darkness's glare
Her soft attributes betraying the true warrior inside
She closes herself off to the world
Hiding behind windows of fog and illusion
Rare is it to see into the window of her soul

I'm back and... horrible-r than ever! I've been trapped in the void of inspiration-lack for the past... month or two. This concept sort of popped into my head out of nowhere and I decided to try to work with it. The outcome is better than I expected, esp. after being out of it for the past couple months, but still not quite up to par.

Very nice! The scheme is good and not too loud and "in your face" and so totally you! Composition is good, however a suggestion is to take out the person in the lower left as it draws away from the main window and the eye. Your focal point is "window to my soul" and I think the person (perhaps make them bigger and faded as a background image/overlay?) takes away from your message.

great colours! nice to see some new stuff from you. the only thing i can see that needs tweeking is the definition of the border. on the right, it kind of melts into the picture. maybe you can lighten it to one of the colours you used in the piece. i dunno. everything else looks excellent though - love the big eye and the implied "sections" of this. looks really nice

Yes eniisis' is so talented at these things <3333

I love how you blended everything in the concept's definitely my fav. I love the poem there! You don't only have amazing manip skills but also a very beautiful writer.

I like the green and purple tones! ^___^ I think the fuzziness on the black works well here, because of the concept. ^___^!

It's weird...I didn't even see the title but the thought "Window of the soul" truly came to mine when I saw this. Awesome image and very well executed. Love the purple tones. Nice work
