This is a beautiful picture, and I only came across it by accident! I love all the adjustments you made and am sorry you were unable to use it as you'd originally planned.

This probably sounds a little strange, but I was immediately taken with the picture because, even with all the changes and filters, it looks so much like Stevie Nicks from Fleetwood Mac.

This really is very nice. Great work!

    Thank you. I appreciate your kind review very much. Sorry for responding late. I didn't see any resamblance but that's probably because it is a friend of mine in the original photo so I didn't think of it.
Comment from Charlena


I really like what you did with this, it has a Monet feel with the look of daubed paint. Soft and alluring, keeps my attention. Awesome work.

Nice work on this portrait to make it look like a painting. I like the rough painted textured feel. Very nice soft colors.. Composition is very good. Well done. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Boyd


I love this impressionistic watercolor type approach. This is my style and the colors are great. Such despair and loneliness. What a mood piece! Great!

Now this is really different looking piece I like the work that you did and the blurry effect that you used makes her really look like she is in solitude all alone in a world that distorts every thing like this cool looking pieceyou can still see the softness of her and the coloration is great good job arthound john ( :

In the beginning was the word, and the word was Pictured...
...Art is simply another language, the language of the soul, of the heart and mind... a language of faith.
If there is a meaning it would be one born out of this faith, this desire to communicate.
Artist view the world as a dance of mirage like manifestations and appearances, all rediscover in his work, over and over again.
Shape and proportion are good and harmony make connections with balance among the elements.
Composition, color, and attention to detail tou succeed in creating remarkable work.
Stylistic signatures of artist bygones, into a art form.
Subject desire to bring to life the images from your heart and that faith plays a key role in the creation of your art.
Your art's subjects is in some way influenced by your work and the things you witnessed throughout it. You are trying to express inner feelings and wondering how subconsciousness influences the process of making art.

Comment from focaldot


Its a lovely mixmedia, it would have been perfect for Poetry Imagery but yeah, not for photographers, i like the expressions and the way she is lost, even i can see that feeling after so many filters applied, Nice composition so the soft colors, it really gives a look of water color painting. All the best for the contest.

Comment from StRyCh9


Awesome mixed media work in this presentation. Color palette is striking and yet soft enough to be expressive. The beautiful dreamy feel enhances expressive. Love your framing, the tension created by her looking out of the frame is superb. I especially enjoyed your work from the perspective that it is still easily recognizable as a portrait. Well done on this most enjoyable presentation.
