Description I want to be the prettiest of nature's creation...

---

This is the first picture of a series I am planning: The seven deadly sins. This is the sin envy.

It is a collab between me and my brother sanguisgelidus You should really watch him, if you don't already do! ^^

I really hope you like this picture, I spend so much time and effort on it! Favs and comments/critiques are sooo highly appreciated!!

Originally a watercolor-paint, overworked with Photoshop CS4. You can download it and use it as background for your handhelds, if you want!

---

And to my watchers: I am soo sorry for the re-re-submit... ^^' But there was a little problem yesterday, so I had to delete it once more... I hope you aren't annoyed to see this once more in your inbox! xD

This is INCREDIBLY beautiful. the technique, the originality, everything- EVERYTHING!!!!!! is outstanding. I especially love how you made her seem so beautiful, but when you look down at her neck, you can see that there is a dead/dying peacock, perhaps a symbol of beauty, and you know that SHE killed it, SHE was the one who attempted to steal it's beauty. Overall, this piece is beautiful and INCREDIBLY lifelike.This is what I call true art. Beautiful. just. BEAUTIFUL. Nice toch with the butterfly, btw.
favoriting, watching, and DEFINATELY looking forward to your next pieces (especially wrath, for some odd reason XD)

Something in this painting is different. Yes, the color blending looks good, and the painting is in perfect harmony. The technique of melting the object of focus into the background is really working magic here, leaving no room for distractions, and at the same time filling the space beautifully. But let's be honest, as a painter you're supposed to achieve that, right? This is not what got my attention.

No, what really got my eyes fixed is not the (painter-you), but rather the (artist-you). The simple idea that lurks somewhere in the picture, that silent sound that screams (ENVY!) even when the title is gone, is what got me from the first look. Because, somehow, you managed to make everything she has looks so charming, but yet dead, and the look in her eyes almost whispers in my ears: (I want that which you have). Yes, she's got everything, but it looks dead because she, simply, wants what others have.

Now this is art. Talking through a picture, and saying what can't be said by words. Not many people know how to do this. Great work, hope to see more of this gems soon.

This is beautiful. There's so much to take in, when you realize her hair is clouds and there's a peacock around her neck-her eyes seem to stare right into your soul. The only comment I would make is the green on the peacock is too...not really fitting with the other colors(even though it is a cool color). I think it somehow takes away from the pretty blues and purples. I wasn't sure what your vision was(but that's probably because I'm younger than you may think). I can't get over how stunning it is. So much detail and thought went into it...its gorgeous.

,eautiful, Stunning, Bravo. For a breif minute I thought it was a photograph. It is one of the most brilliant pieces of artwork I have seen in awhile. The freckles on her face was a great touch to make her look even more innocent then she already did. It made her look realistic. I love how you put the peacock around her neck and use the colors of he peacock to blend everything and pull everything together. The littlest things like the shine on her nails makes the painting look real. I absolutely love the color contrast on her eyes with the eye shadow. I like the lip color with the eye of the peacock. That makes it so its not the only pink shade. Its a beautiful piece of artwork. The butterfly was also, a great touch. It shows she gets along well with animals. And makes you wonder what she is thinking. Welldone.

If you look closely at the detail of the animals... they don't look like they're in good condition. The peacock appears to have blood coming out of it's mouth and the butterfly looks crooked and bent, so yeah... i wouldn't say she gets along with animals... sorry, I had to put that out there XD;

Das Bild ist wirklich der Wahnsinn.
Die Farben sind unglaublich gut kombiniert, es ergeben sich tolle Kontraste und das Zusammenspiel von Licht und Schatten lassen das Ganze nochmals lebendiger wirken.
Das Motiv ist richtig richtig gut getroffen, die leichte Asymmetrie der Lippen und die Sommersprossen verleihen dem Charakter etwas Natürliches. Und sie sieht wirklich unglaublich schön aus!
Und dann erst die Idee dahinter! Man erkennt erst auf den zweiten Blick, was es mit dem Pfau auf sich hat und dass sie mitunter auch etwas Bedrohliches, Gefährliches ausstrahlt.

Insgesamt finde ich die Idee klasse und deine Interpretation der Todsünde Neid ist erfrischend neu. Die Farbwahl haut einen um und der Blick aus diesen eiskalten blauen Augen nimmt einen echt gefangen...

Wow.
Ich bin riesig gespannt, wie du die anderen Todsünden darstellst!!!

I have to say this is one of the most impressive things I have seen in a very long time. The colors are stunning in fact I thought for a few moments this was a photograph. Silly me. But the bright colors and low tones just work so well togeather. And then the dead bird and blood just add an interesting twist to this already amazing piece. And the eyes on this girl goodness the details and glow I just all around love this. I look forward to seeing more things like this from you. So great job my friend.

You can link to another deviant's profile by typing :dev[place user name here]. So, for instance, you could type :dev sanguisgelidus: without the space and end up with =sanguisGelidus .
Or you could simply display the user's icon by typing :icon sanguisgelidus:, like so: .

This will allow people to quickly and easily check out your brother's profile.
