This is such a beautiful drawing! It is soft in all the right places and has strong contrast where needed. It makes a huge difference when so much attention is paid to detail. So full of emotion! I love the sepia tone as well. Love it!

It is not difficult to understand why this beautiful drawing won this contest. Without seeing the other entries, I am sure it was well deserved. It is something so very romantic about this scene, with the young woman sleeping in a field of flowers. Or is she is in heaven, like your title indicates. I would rather think she was dreaming, because especially the background is very dream like because of the softness.

As always this drawing is done paying such good attention to every little detail, but most of all I like the way you brought a heavenly light into this piece of art. The light is falling on the woman in such a lovely way, and also the flowers in the background are shining like the sun itself.

This drawing also have a strong composition. It is indeed well balanced and with an excellent flow. I think I could sit and look at this forever, and still find details I did not see straight away. A truly beautiful and well crafted drawing. Thank you for sharing it once more.
