I like it! Very classical painting that you'd see in a fantasy book.

Full points from me!

aaahhhh elf ears again! I hate elf ears...

I wish I could bring such atmospere into an image...beautiful.
Im not sure if the reflections in the water are at the right place - compared with the light on her body. Maybe Im wrong.....dunno.

Cheers

What I like the most about this image is lighting. You did a good job creating comfortable ambiance. The colors are very soothing, but her hair is maybe a bit too much for me. The color seem little too saturated for my taste. Keep up a good work.

This is lovely! I like how you handled the water, and the texture on the dress looks good too. I really really like how you handled her top two wings, though the other wings seem a little... well, floppy in comparison Maybe putting some veins in those others would help with that. All in all though, it makes for a very nice piece!

well about wings maggock is right ... I think,
but it's a very nice piece

you know, i love most all of your work, but i think that next to the night & day painting, this is quite possibly my favorite. i can honestly say that i thiink it's one of your best ^.^

yea. that's one of my fav's as well -g- though i like all my stuff for different reasons, even my older pictures.

-goes to pm maggock-

And I still love the atmosphere of this painting. The soft light is wonderful. I want the summer back

brilliant, brilliant -- I love this!

hey shadowgirl this is wonderful.

now i know what this pic was for.
lovely pic.

I love all the green it gives the picture a tranquil feeling. Nice work.

its sooo beautiful!

Geez....I tell you I'm going to watch for this then I totally miss it. *sigh* Nice piece of course! +8

you're work just keeps improving with every piece you do. Very nice job. You have consistantly been producing quality work for months now...you are way overdue for elite status...HEAR THAT GUYS!!!!! Every month you have 2-3 pieces in the top 5...keep it up.

welll nothing to add .. the people explain better the concet--- but what i want to say is... fantastic work!

Hey well done Laura - looks like we both got the moderators choice on Elfwood today - lovely pic by the way!

I've always meant to tell you that I love this image. +8

By the way, I've voted for you for Elite pretty much since the beginning.
PhilipStraub is right, you ARE overdue.

Laura-

I was outvoted on this one, I thought it should have definitely at least made runner up. I think maybe the rest of the judges felt she was too plain, not enough flash? I don't know. I really love the pose and her whole persona, it's like the fae that you may actually run into in the woods. I'm keeping this image on my back burner, I'll be watching you, I love your work.

-lol-
Flash in a forest = her getting eaten by something... I don't *do* flashy stuff =]

I love your work, Laura. and this is no exception. It is beautiful. I love the way you did the Fairy's hair. It's like everything else has a green tint to it except for the hair. It makes it the first thing that you look at.
