Excellentart work.Very beautifule is done,.bravo my dear art friend!...Have a nice day!!!-eduard....
Looks like a monochromatic painting? Nice composition, light and shadow and very intence expression of woman. Good work.
I love this, I want to know what she's preparing for! I love when art makes me want to know the story, or just evokes a pure emotional reflex. I want to know her story.
I can see why this merited so many stars, you do amazing things with sepia, love the feminine form, the beautiful dance of light and shadow...
Speechless, excellent work! I could use the better part of the day to get lost in your work. Thanks for sharing!
I love it!
I knew I had been here before Derek- but great to see folks featuring this recently- and - thanks for adding to BLUE!
Man I love this piece I saw it before and meant to comment but never got the opportunity to till now great job!
out of all your pieces, I think this is the one that really captured my attention. The lady on the portrait intrigues me, is it vanity or an obligatory conformity to society's archetype of what beauty should be? the sephia color scheme is so awesome
Love this!! (Could've sworn I already gave it a star and comment!!! :) ) Anyway, this is fantastic work, my friend!! :)
These are great. I think this one is my favorite. I love the lighting and the way the figure dissolves into the background.
The figure is framed beautifully by the light and the shadow, and the abstraction focuses my eye on the poetic line of her silhouette.
