What a great painting. It is so well drawn and painted. Good facial features, great colors, and the Phantom is so realistic and conveys the mood very well. Great composition. Like this a lot.

Nice painting and presentation of your subject. Black and blue background looks good to me. The Phantom is eerie for sure and that expression! She looks serious. Colors are very nice. 'Enjoyed.

Comment from wthorp


like how the faces are sharp and then gradually the focus becomes softer and softer, very clever in painting, her eyes show a real sadness, very good composition

    Thank you for your compassionate review. It is digital but it is painted like a traditional brushstroke by brushstroke on a blank canvas. Don't worry about stars, happen to me all the time. I'm out already this week too.

You have come up with an interesting concept and wonderful use of the medium. I like what you have created here. It is a really well thought out piece and has great colour. All up a really nice piece of digital artwork. Robin

Very good! Definitely one of the best digital arts I have seen. Now this is what I have been looking for rather than the LSD crazy stuff that keeps showing up. It seems that some work was put into this. It is a good job!

    Thank you very much for your compassionate review and the high rating. Yes there was some work put into. I can't say for sure how many hours about 30-35 I think. I worked of and on for about a week.
