Very 20's if you ask me(era)Amazing again Tania.Love the little sparklies.
Oh Tania this is a magical and fantastical image....lovely!!
I have wondered every time I saw your pictures wether you use photography or digitally generated portraits (Poser) as your starting medium. Today, before viewing your posting, I decided to ask you. Well, you gave the answer. Thanks. I agree with romanceworks, the best technique is useless unless it is combined with creativity and artistic sense of which there is certainly no lack on your part. As always a wonderful, intriguing, captivating image.
Another fantastic and unique creation...I also see a surprise hidden here. The winged creature (butterflie/moth) has a 'face' in it's wings. I see two eyes, a nose, and distorted mouth...was that on purpose, or was the subconscious at work here......?...I really like it.......!!!
Beautifully done!!!
Gorgeous!! This is breathtaking!! You create art indeed!
You have the most unique style...it draws people to you and your art. Like moths to a flame. I've been a huge admirer since day one. You rule Tania...

Simple but powerful, evocative and expressive. I love it.
Nice image. The tutorial is lost on me, but I still appreciate the result. ** Did the butterfly fly out of her heart? The trail of white dots is almost a string of pearls...
Quite a recipe there. Looks like one of those vintage '20s postcards. She looks like a total '20s girl too. Sweet!
A composition with extreme delicacy of colors and effect. This effect that you use with the butterfly is very pretty. Excellent technique and creativity ! Congratulations Tania ! **** Uma composio com extrema delicadeza de cor e efeitos. Esse efeito que vocusa com a borboleta muito lindo. Excelente tnica e criatividade ! Parabs Tania !
