Interesting to read your notes on you working with Dr's without borders.
I really like the textures the palette knife offered here.
Nice colors, details and I like the softness of her look and Profile.
Nicely done Cleo :)

What a wonderful digital painting, Cleo. It really shows off your depth of talent with the digital media. Such excellent realistic human form perspective and the color shadings to achieve natural skin tone and hair are perfection. You're a real pro, my friend.

This art work is really interesting. Oh the first glance I thought it was a painting/sketch filter on top of a regular photo. Which this was. It made me quite disappointed.

    Thank you for your review.
    This is not a paint filter an top of a regular photo.
    It is a painting, painted brush stroke for brush stroke in about 40 hours.

This is a really well done work of art. You can feel the deep emotion in the lovely young girls expression. Great job throughout. Great technique in her hair and skin. Great shading and detail. Really well done.

This is excellent. I love the colors and textures. The composition and details are very nice. The vibrant shirt compared to the neutral background makes this piece stand out. This is very unique and creative!

Comment from Halloweena


I thought this is an artwork done in colored pencils or color pastels, not until I read the description!
Very well "handling" technology!
What is clear tho, is the contrast of the process you did, which is technological, with the subject matter- a girl from the Mayan race- which we know is a very old civilization.
