Overall
Vision
Originality
Technique
Impact
First off I want to say that you should be really proud of this piece as its absolutely stunning.
For ‘vision’: Well as far as this is concerned, this piece really excels. The colours you’ve used really give the impression of being underwater where it is cold and dark, but then you also have the light in the woman’s eyes and her hair, which is a really nice contrast. It gives the impression that this character is strong, despite the title implying that she is just born.
‘Originality’: While nude women are a rather common sight on dA it is rather refreshing to see a piece that isn’t erotic, but rather innocent instead. The almost ‘foetal’ position she’s in again relates back to your title and is a really nice trick.
‘Technique’: Its clear that you’re a skilled artist from looking at this. All the blues work really well and the way her hair flows adds to the impression of being underwater. Speaking of her hair, her left side looks a tad flat in comparison to the numerous layers on the right, but that’s a small thing and overall her hair looks pretty realistic. Your anatomy looks solid too, and her face is especially stunning. Another rather minor pointer would be that her thighs look rather large in comparison to the rest of her body. Again it’s a small detraction from the piece overall.
‘Impact’: Well, impact deserves some points right off the bat for influencing me to stop and write this critique instead of simply ignoring it. I’d have to say the most impact is in the eyes and, as cheesy as that sounds, her bright eyes really do stand out the most in comparison to all the grey-blues of the surrounding water. This may sound odd but it may be worth a try to experiment with some slightly different colours [some greens, different hues of blue, purple etc] for the woman so that she stands out a bit more against the background [you may have intended otherwise, so its just an idea].
Overall a wonderful piece <3 definitely the best thing I’ve seen all day.

Det var roligt att se denna. Jag sa ju någon gång tidigare att dina ansikten såg likadana ut. I den här har du lyckats teckna någon annan, men det syns fortfarande att det är du som gjort den - asbra!
Det enda jag vill klaga lite på är att benen inte ser ut att ha någon riktig volym, utan ligger platt upp över magen. Annars är det jättebra.

Tack så mycket, vad glad jag blir att det ser bättre ut! Tackar för feedbacken, ska tänka på det där med benen i fortsättningen. Kram
