i dont exactly mean it as a criticism, i mean it is technically savvy, you know what you want to do and how to do it, thats all fine. i just dont know about that face . i think its smack in the middle of two things:
either "oh, ok, theres a face with some ornamental background"
or "hm... nice abstract ornaments... oh WAIT, wooow, ther is a FACE right here!"
and i think i would like one or the other more than a bit of both. just my observation...

well, for one thing, it's not abstract. and it's not "some ornamental background". this is a full picture of a figure, not just a face, but a being in a spiritual/emotional/physical landscape. there are mountains, constellations, a stylized ammonite and a lotus full of crystals. it's just the way it is. it's art. my art. and an extremely personal piece full of my own symbolism and life experience/perspective. it's energy, it's a dream and it doesn't have to be anything else. either you see it and feel it, or you don't.

fair enough, i was talking about the first impression of the image. to me, i see "face" and "bunch of stuff". when i observe it closer i can make out the more detailed things out of the "bunch of stuff". but the face i see immediately, i dont have to make it out. im not disputing the fact that it is your art, and you make it whatever YOU need to make it. on the other hand, i am the beholder... i am telling you what my feeling is, when i look at this piece of art. it may very well be, that i just dont "see of feel" what you portray - and thats fine too. good luck to you in your work!

Very nice use of form and I like the references to the lotus flower as well as the spirals and their significance to consciousness. Well done.

Beautiful. really good work. It makes me think of a heroine
in Sci-fi novels that I've only imagined up till now.
Thanks for introducing me to her.

Great work, it's so easy for someone who puts this amount of detail and pattern into an image to make it stale and repetitive, something you've managed to avoid with ease. I could look at this all day
