She reminds me a bit of Barbie... in a good way. Her face is just so bright and perfect! Very cool concept... excellent execution and colors. It's awesome, and especially awesome that you have the bandage, too.

Wonderful work Katie, loved the way how you drew the face, and the eye look so sharp and the details are amazing, but is that bandage is real ??

Intense. I like the bandage. Using an object in its real form rather than an illusion really hits things home.

I love the smoothness of the picture, then disrupted by the gauze at the top; it's amazing! The colors fit so well! Stunning work, as always.

The eye looks gorgeous. It reminds me of those old dolls. Though this one looks pretty alive!

I'm very happy you noticed that doll-like aspect! To me she seems like she might be Aru from "Kaishi" [link]

I don't know who she is, but I definitely see the resemblance
It's a rare mix of your face and some delicate porcelain doll. Lovely
Oh, and I forgot to fav it

I think they look like themselves
Seriously, I think you have a pretty solid style already and although you can have influences from other artists (we all do) it won't make you lose your own input. Long story short, your girls are unique

i've seen this a few times when i visit your page (to hit the note button ) and i'm surprised i didn't fav this already
the eye and patch are really realistic! with A LOT of details i'd say and even though the eraser blade on its own scares me, the little petals impressions of the blood softens it so much!
great job!

This is really beautiful I love that you used real gauze and surgical tape on it - I had to double-take at it.
After that, my eyes were really drawn to her eye...very striking.

Breathtakingly stirring...the harshest of emotions conveyed with the most tender, delicate touch. She has an exceptionally stunning face, perhaps made even more beautiful by her scars and anguish.
