I asked Amber
SummerDreams-Art
to do a critique on Natures Thoughts II

Before

Well, the first thing that I would say about this art is impressive after seeing that you turned a B&W image into a colourful one. The soft tones and the blurring used here really complements each other bringing is such a fine attributes of feminine delicateness to the whole art. But what I noticed is that you've softened the skin on her face quite a bit because the area around her eyes have become out of focus and lost some of it's aesthetic features where eyes are used to describe the beauty of a woman. Maybe you could have defined them a bit more, brought them into focus. Another things that distracts me are her irises colour, which seems to be popping out unnaturally. You could've worked a bit more on it by enhancing it with the dodge & burn tool. The skin beneath her sheer tulle is pink while the other part of the skin not covered by it has an absolutely different contrasting tone, maybe you could desaturate it very slightly and added a bit of pink tone over it. The background is great, simple yet soft I loved the bokeh texture you have used here. Maybe if you had added a few more pearls around in the scene of varied sizes it would have lent a more elegant touch. Apart from all this I feel it’s a really lovely piece of work and you did it impressively, especially turning a monochromatic image into a coloured one.
That's about it, I hope I have given you a fair feedback/critique.
Regards,
Amber.
I worked a long time on her eyes and tried to even out the tones. Moved things around a little added a few more bubbles plus the birds and bare branches. So please tell me which one you like best
