Ah yeah, I like those distortion effects in Painter, reminds me of marbling. A very strange overall effect you've given this one Gun, it's very beautiful and yet at the same time the distortion of her face gives her a slightly unsettling quality even though her expression is benign. A numb, tired expression perhaps, as if she's too exhausted emotionally and physically to truly notice what's going on around her. Like it :-)
powerful mood and feeling here..! love the effext and the butterflys mergin into color with the facial epression...the coloe choosen is perfect ..and the road leading up to her chin makes me think of a pathway to her heart.. amazing!
an excellent work and composition, i like teh colros and teh texture. have a good day
I like the golden glow in here...lovely...
Awesome butterfly lady and she seems in a quite momment of contemplation. Excellent!!!! :o)
Fantastic result on the effects, that came to increese the quality of this image. Congrazts!!
Beautiful!!!!
Whatever you did, the results are wonderful. A most interesting and lovely composition.
I love the colors and overall composition ... the texture is pleasing too. Excellent work.
For some reason your textures remind me of flower petals and tissue paper, which makes for such an ethereal image.I really enjoy your work.The colors of this are vibrant yet so natural.
Wonderful image and warm colors. The textures and composition is fantastic. Excellent work!
I love the effects on her face Gun, she looks so distant & introspective an impression made all the stronger by the warm colour & beautiful textures, really nice work ; )
fantastic and emotionful artwork! love the color tones and the composition is outstanding! the transparent layers are like a rushing life before the inner eye! gorgeous creation! ;o)
Strange indeed! I like the textures and the colors but I'm really not keen on the frame here but that's, of course, a question of personal taste so just ignore me here! ;)
Interesting that it was done in Painter. It's excellent!!! I just did a piece tonight in Painter 8 that I plan on uploading in the morning. :)
reminds of a warming batik or a magical quilted pillow :]
Indeed it looks like a most beautiful batik work! A piece of art to frame and hang on the wall! Excellently done! ****
Still has your beautiful and haunting touch, feel the artwork each time!
:) Its just this or that ;) Yeah, but, beautifull as ever.
Nice work... I'm thinking a reflection of a lady with her coffee cup washing dishes! (and a moth dropped in!)... lol.... NO seriously, these are cool textures ....and it shows how faces & lines draw natural emotive responses in a viewer.
lovely...
wonderful portrait artwork. i agree about the batik style. fascinating textures and colours. #:O)
wonderful composition. i like much the autumnal colors.
I'm so late here too! Sorry! This is such an impressive picture - the slight distortion on her face makes her look tired, and a bit desperate... maybe the butterflies are not all yet come, and she's worried about them. :-) Love the colours, and the vague white wave makes the final touch of dream feeling. :-)
