lovely work! I'm not sure about those waterdrops in the background. I'm assuming you used a photograph there, and I think it would have been much nicer if you'd drawn something there so that it would better fit the rest of the image.

Thank you ! The raindrops are indeed a texture provided by a fellow deviant I also had a few doubts, but was stuck for ideas for a background I'll work harder next time !

I know, but in fact I was XD I still have a lot of trouble with backgrounds, and I tend to rely very much on textures... Thanks for the feedback !

Arthisa In reply to ??? [2011-02-08 20:56:15 +0000 UTC]

I love the Art Nouveau feeling of the sunflower and the background!! And I love the color, too, and not just because it's orange (you know, school colors and all...) It's the perfect mix of warmth and energy. The hair is absolutely amazingly colored (love love love the highlights) and the "dΓ©gradΓ©" of the dress also adds to the Mucha feel... Also, magnificent job on the folds of the dress.

The rain texture/background is a bit out of place with the rest of the piece, I feel. The superposition was a bit confusing at first. It still looks great, of course, but you know, I'm just not comfortable with style mixing. The little sun on the left is also a bit out of place, and I think that's mostly because of the bright contours instead of the darker ones in the rest of the piece.

But all in all, this piece is full of WIN!

Aaw, thanks a lot for the nice detailed comment ^^ You could have posted it as a critique you know ? Thanks for pointing out the line colouring problems ^^ I'm still experimenting with that OwO And I do tend to go on texture binges I'll be careful !

I didn't know orange was your school colour XD

You're welcome – meh, commentingΒ is the only way that I can do art since I can't draw... And you didn't ask for a critique...?

Yep, our school colors are... orange and black.

PS: I just went back to the smaller icon, and the background looks much better that way. My screen is just too small to see the piece as a whole, which is kinda annoying...
