Yeap. Great illustration of the story. Just as an interesting and funny fact, in Romania we call it : "Fetita cu chibrituri".

This is a gorgeous piece! I really love whatever medium you used and the shading
Just a few flaws I noticed (just as a friendly tip from an outsider): The light pole seems a bit crooked, and takes focus from the piece. These days I try to use a ruler to make some of those lines straighter. Her hands also seem a bit small for the rest of her body (that may just be me), and the size of the face doesn't seem to match the size of the head (again, it might just be me). Overall, though, very well done!

maybe you are right,but i think that the pic look good as a whole.and i've just made some small deformations cause of the style. especally the one with the head,it's cause of the big hair/in some manga styles this exist/ ...for the straighter lines.. shit shit,don't have an excuse

It's fine, I understand. The picture looks good as a whole, no doubt, I just like to try and give some input if I can.

the tale is great - I listened to it very often in my childhood and I always cried in the end ^^

yes it's true.sad story indeed.

This is greatness on canvas! I love how the yellow and blue colors fuse together makes the coloring rich and warm, even though it's generally cold. Which again sets the focus on the warmth the little match girl feels.
I don't know if it's your intent, but I interpret the light leading from the match and goes up left, is her road to heaven. And the yellow wings are the angel wings that's going to take her up there. A deep meaning indeed. Very well done

thank you very much! cold and fire where the main characters in here,i've put the kind of fire wings on purpose,to show that the girl will die,yes.i'm affraid i didn't think of road to heaven,but more of aurora burialis or just a way to "show the air" but yours it's interesting interpretation.thanks again for the good comment

Ohh I know that story, it's so sad..
Also this piece reminds me a little bit of Lucy in Narnia. Mostly because of the lamp post and the snow..
Great work!

Though it's The Little Match Girl, I think of Lucy from when I read the Narnia books... I was really little, but I remember the lamp post.

I need to read those again. I saw the movie once, and remember nothing, but I know Tilda Swinton was in it. She's one of my favorite actresses.
