nicely done! I like your technique and style. Your shading and anatomy looks good too. The contrast between the woman and background is also presented well!
lovely painting, thanks for sharing!

This is a very beautiful piece, nicely composed and detailed and you can really see emotion in the woman's face. Overall technically sound I think and a great job, thank you for sharing it

Comment from JoMill 3'nOut's ok
So very good, but we both know that some work is needed on the hands. I know they are not easy, but you need to fix them or "hide" them; they take too much away from these gorgeous images.

thanks so much for your very kind and great review once again thank you so much im not very good at shooting these the hands have a lot more detail but some of the detail is lost when i shoot it i have a pretty good camerea a ten megapixal but cant figure ut how to shoot the artwork very well any tips
-
Oh! It appeared to me that the left hand was too large (wide) and the right hand lacked sufficient detail... overly long fingers. Is this in the original or dod the distortions appear in the photographing?. If you lost detail in the photo, speed up the exposure...of course that might cost you on the darker parts .. you might hace to edit the photo a bit to fix that... then we have turned you away from "art"...

This is absolutely beautiful. I wish I had a "6" to give you. The body lines are flawless. You did an excellent job on the hands, which impresses me. Nice job. Keep up the good work.

Comment from ddglenn
Another lovely and thought provoking image. This has very strong initial impact and certainly has a story to tell. I like the neutral colors and dramatic shading. It gives the scene a very glamorous and hedonistic feel.

I stole half a star because, and it may be my own fault, I cannot get the conncection to the musical content of the nocturne Title. I think the image is great, she is lovely and the tones, shadows, shapes and details are great, I don`t get the connection, though, between her and the title. This is, of its own, a very well completed and interesting piece. Talent and tehnique abound. Very watchable and very enjoyable - visually - a joy to review.

thank you so much music and painting as well as science are all art forms the title came from music i was listenimg to while i painted this portrait once again thank you so much

Hi - thanks for the details. Excellent. Even adds to the great emotion which you have shown and portrayed so elegantly. The title, to me, meant only Music and hence my confusion. Now I know that the music was there I am cheered and delighted. Great stuff. All the best to you and yours. keir

This is a very well-done and moving image. Great techniques are demonstrated. The composition is intregueing. Excellent painting.

Like this one very much Jesuel. the setting and composition are excellent. much story telling here. Your use of light and dark make this very dramatic work and i like the textured appearance of her clothing. Great work.

Better and Better James...
A definite advancement in composition I think. The background is playing a part in the painting and I think that adds a dimension to the beautiful young lady.. Always nice to see your paintings...Dennis
