Amazing job with detail! And in watercolor, my favorite medium!

Her hands amaze me, and I love the figure. In a crooked way, I imagine her to be a teacher, a teacher this time, instead of students with guns. Just by her dress, it reminds me of a teacher I had. She had a bad day, and now she take's 'em out.


I know, that's really really crooked and a messed up way to interpret this. But everyone has a different perspective.

But I really love the detail in this, her pose is intimidating, and the hair is awesome. What more can I say? This has all the mood and atmosphere anyone could imagine to recieve from a painting! Great mastery here!

I had always joked that I thought she was a pissed off hostess, and had one too many bad customers. I like the school teacher idea. Maybe she is a librarian who finally got sick of people talking too loud?

She looks very angry. I would not want to be in the line of fire at that particular moment.

Thanks. I had fun painting this one, and that always makes things easier. I also wanted to let you know I really like "Contemplation" in your gallery. I thought you captured a beautiful, look there, and the title says it all.

Not only are your technical skills mastered, but this piece is so different. Her expression, the dress in contrast with the guns..bloody hell you are my hero.

Her eyes are a little crooked, but I think that fits with her mindset. In my opinion, anyway.

This is a magnificent watercolour piece -- redering with so much form and precision with watercolour as a medium is something I cannot seem to do, no matter how hard I try. It's breathtaking when I see it as well-done as this piece is. I especially love her delicate tendrils of hair, and the veins on her hands, and the way her pistols are camouflaged against her skirt and background. Wonderful. I hope to see more great things from you. *favs and devwatches*
