Love the hair, love the hair. The look of pure bliss on smelling the flower is priceless. Love the total simplicity and color of the face. Great composition. Find the second figure to be intriguing.

Comment from Anne


Now how can she smell the roses with hair like that? This is so neat and so creative. The detail in this, the way you have done the flower and put her in the picture, the coloring are all excellent. A very creative picture.

I like the colors and tones on this piece. I think that this is a real trendy painting. It is quite pretty as well. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from sergiu


Full of colors your rose and unexpected effect on hair and much better effects in background in gray...
...maybe a little your flower look artificially but that is tolerably in context with 2D design, and so because I get here, I think the 3D texture in background can be useful at hair texture and effects, for that all five from me and congratulation for improvement in your style!

    You should know me better than that, Sergiu. I don't really have a style. I just paint whatever turns me on at the time. :) Thanks a million for the very positive review.

    Welcome ! It is time to gain a style, that not mean to have any restriction, just improve one manner what like you. But sorry if I give you advice...you are in the top and ...pleas forgive me! for all !
reply by the author on 15-Oct-2008
    No, don't be sorry. I take your advice very serious. As far as style goes, I will never achieve that, as you can tell, I never do anything the same, and never the same way. I guess you could say it's a hang-up I have, and my biggest problem with art. I would be totally bored doing things the same, like being in a rut. I truly thank you for the great review, I do enjoy your comments.

    My pleasure any time ! But if you look closely at your art you can see many of them, it look like one with other but last is new and look different(relating to style, that !)...in my opinion.

    I want to beg you for your opinion about one of my work -Spirits of Etheria.
    Pleas, you have a chance to revenge...joking.
    Tell me what you think, be mercilessly.
Comment from susie049


I love the textures in the painting -- the fuzzy hair, the silky flower. Great composition! The only thing I would've changed would be to have the top of the photo go a little higher instead of cutting off the gray you see at the top of the hair

    Thank you for the review, Susie. There really wasn't much I could do about the top of this. Sometimes when using different effects, they tend to extend to or beyond the boundries. I understand what you are saying, but this is the entire painting, there was nothing cut off. Also, I do not use photos. Again, thank you for reviewing this. I appreciate it.

Comment from wrhosie935


Very clever creation. The composition is perfect with the frizzly hair framing the brightly lit face of your heroine. Looks like it would make a great ad for perfume or cologne or makeup. Not too good for a hair product, though.

Comment from tonianderson


What a eye catcher! Lovely colors and mood. Thoroughly different but oddly familiar. You have quite the unique approach here!

Comment from wingsoflove


Shawn; this is an extremely created love art work of Modern Rose. The non chalant smile and the dreamy eyes set off this work but most of all the hair is powerful and well created. Great work and thank you
