Comment from Mara del Mar
This is very cute, a creation wonderful. Radiant color and good clarity. Details as eyes, lip, and expression of face, are awesome. A beautiful and delicate work. Well done.

Beautiful creation, nice piece of work done. Fantastic subject and intriguing to the eye. Colorful yet not washed out or too bright. Soft and inviting eyes, sensuous lips and skin tone. Very well done, thank you for sharing! ~ Dennis

You are very welcome!

Comment from buckeye
Very nice image. I feel like the focus around the forehead is a little soft, does not appear as sharp as the lines around the jawline. I love the eyes, and the added water drop.Good color. Thank for shairing

I did it that way on purpose, buckeye. I wanted the petals of the rose to fade into her face instead of having hard edges. Thank you so much for taking the time to view and review. I really appreciate it. :)shawn

Comment from Skyangel02
Absolutely delightful. It is cute, adorable and very well done. Your blending is excellent. You worked well with the light and dark shades to create light.
Did you paint the face freehand from your own imagination or did you have a reference to copy?

Thank you ever so much, Skyangel!! LOL, just my imagination at work again. I thank you for the very encouraging review and beautiful rating. I truly appreciate both. I forgot to look to see who won the "Cute" contest, but I have a feeling it was the one that had my vote :)). CONGRATULATIONS are in order I'm sure. :)shawn

Comment from ozzyart
This is both a strong yet delicate work. you have bold pure colours with hard edges against the softness of the face which has an innocence about it. The waterdrop works well, though I feel a few more wouldn't hurt. Well done!

I tried more drops, ozzy, and they seemed to distract from her face. I wanted people to see the innocent expression in her eyes. Thank you so much for the wonderful review!! I really appreciate it. :)shawn

Comment from amfunny
This is pretty and very creatively done. An interesting piece. She reminds me a lot of those little porcelain dolls.

Comment from coramagere
Nice creative outlook. I like the pale face against the rich red petals. The eyes are so bold and glossy. It brings out a sense of innocence. The color of the lips are perfect. The black background and the bold greenery gives this an Asian feel in my opinion.
