Hmm... I think I do like it a little more than " Like Oxygen"... I think it's the Palette... I love green. Her skin is also really well done, I like the blush effect

Thank you so much for the nice comment!
Unfortunately my sisters and I are trying to start our own band, so we don't want to release the lyrics to our songs until we can write music to it and play it. If we ever get Like Oxygen on Youtube, I promise I'll send you the link
Thanks so much! ^^

its hard to hit the ground running with music, I understand completely.... it has to capture the audience like an emotion
I was in band in high school and I loved the soul of the music, the song..... the feeling of playing with such great livelyhood.... but, its hard to find music with that much feeling... I am trying to get more into christian music, but right now, Snow Patrol is the only band that I can really sense the emotion of the music, its very expressive

This one's really beautiful. Probably the best out of the ones you showed me.
The iridiscence of the background, the soft lighting on the skin and clothes, the hair and sweet eyes...
And mostly the patterns on the body/dress, the hands and the tubes...
Everything is so pretty and appealing, so oddly attractive...
Proportions are also very precise and well done.
So, in all, this is one great piece of work. Congratulations, I love it! ^^

I really like the soft, glowing feel to this picture, 'Green Ink' is a perfect title for this. The background is well done, I like the blurred focus it has and the contrasting sharpness with the reeds in the front.
The girl's pose is quite original, you did a fairly decent job at the anatomy too; her expression is very soft, delicate, and beautiful.
Her hair might be too big for her head though, if you measure a human head, the eyes should be placed right at the center. Also, the outlines for her skin are too standing out, it makes the eye focus on them instead of the soft face, softer outlines would be nicer. Her left hand (on our left side) is bent a bit awkwardly, and the fingers seem a bit too floppy; hands are full of bones, they should have sharp curves to them.
It's a very nice drawing, I like the style a lot. Just some small, possibly improvements in the future could be made.

thanks for your comments once again! I'll use your critique for future reference

You're very welcome! The pose indeed looks very nice, good thinking and planning going on there.
Yes, I assumed that you liked the hair bigger, which is why sometimes my critiques are more preference based. It works either way, it actually makes it look pretty cute here, so it's alright.
