Very cool, I like the idea of her submerged under the water... somewhat horrifying to see her like that, but I like this.

the lily pads are an amazing touch. This fits the title marvelously. you don't get near the popularity that you deserve.

It's almost hard to tell whether she's facing down into the water, or peering out of it. Which makes this...really very surreal and awesome.

You know something, I was reading Only The Ring Finger Knows yesterday because a friend lent it to me, and looking at the design of the characters I couldn't help but think of your artwork.
Anyway, wonderful piece! Those little white lines that I'm guessing are water reflections look a little strange to me, almost like she's trapped inside a net or something... but that's me. You've still done an amazing job!

Isn't it great to finally draw the ideas you've always wanted 
Love your idea though, it is really interesting to look at this piece. I love the colour scheme, everything goes so well.

The water doesn't show a lot of disturbance. I can't decide if you did that on purpose or not. haha. Anyways, the colors are dark which is unusual for a picture of this theme. It's unique and I enjoy looking at it very much.

Oooo! Pretty and once again I astounded to see your coloring abilities at work.
I've just realised another thing I really like about your work, the lines flow almost perfectly in with the rest of the colors.
Their visiable, you know their there, and you see them, but there aren't so over powering to take away from the rest of the piece. I really like that.
Critique wise, the only thing that bothers me would be the left (her right) eye. Something about it just seems off in correlation to the rest of her face. Not much, but just slightly. The length of the neck is slightly longer, but that's okay, much anime has charactors with what would other wise be hideously long necks. XD
Very beautiful dear.

I really like the way (I'm assuming it's a girl) her hair blends into the background.
Like all of your other pictures, this is very good!

..Hnn... y'know, I've been watching you on DA for a while. No question that your coloring is BEAUTIFUL, but I always wonder:
Why do all of your characters have exactly the same facial expression? I mean, do you do that on purpose or..? It just kinda.. takes away from your gallery to see all this beautifully colored artwork, but almost every single person has the exact same face. Makes it look like you can't do anything except THAT expression, which I expect isn't true.
I would say this to -any- character artist:
Experiment with different expressions and facial styles. Different angles too. Give your subjects some personality and feeling. Show what they're thinking, what they're feeling, etc.
That's just my suggestion anyway.

A wonderful suggestion! And I really do appreciate the time you took to give me your advice! I just realize though that it seems every time I do a facial expression that differs from the usual nobody notices. The mood of my story is suited to each of my characters expressions but I am able to express other emotions on there faces (I suppose I just don't like to LOL)
Thank you for your advice and I will keep it in mind!

I don't comment on your work nearly enough.
I love your coloring on every picture, it just floors me that you use traditional media for your work! On average how long does it take you do each piece?

I love it, especially the water around her face <3~
