That is a very interesting technique for oil paints where it has heavy impasto at the parts tha are nearest to you and softer at the parts that are farther away. It really gives the peice nice depth perseption. Very well done!

this is one of the most fascinating pieces of art i have ever seen by looking into this eyes i feel as if i'falling right into the fantastic and endless world of the thoughts and feelings behind them...the entire concept is very creative, something different, the atmosphere you created is so real. the style, the blurred landscape, the eyes so real and filled with emotion, the harmony of the home, the lonelyness...this picture is just breathtaking!

Great artist? No no, just a perceptive one
I think what's bugging my is the way they're facing, they're supposed to be angled slightly, right? It just doesn't quite look like that, I don't know.
The rest of it is fantastic though

Jimmy-Fingers [2009-06-18 18:14:38 +0000 UTC]

Woah. The intensity of the eyes are incredible. I love how the expression corresponds with the landscape, how it ebbs off into it. It just bores into you and makes you want whatever the person in the painting wants just as bad as they do, and if you're able to convey that in a paiting that means you have a gift.

I just can't get over how spectacular this is.
