A true test of an artist is how they handle B+W....you have created a wonderfully balanced piece... those eyes are just gorgeous. and the expression..

It looks photorealistic - nearly thought you were starting to do b & W photographs

I like how you bring focus to the face by feathering the edges of her shoulder and neck, while maintaining a sharp edge around her face and jawline.

Again, lots of details - eyes , mouth, freckles, nose ,hair  - all looking great, and in their proportional excellence.

The Value seems very good, there is a lot of depth in the piece - most visible around the cheekbones, mouth, nose, eyes and temple. its also prominent in the hair - done very well to give this piece great depth with the use of only lighter and darker values.* 


* Apologies if i phrased that wrong , Not very advanced with the terms for this...

I'm impressed you can write so much about so little xD I'd be like.. 'I like.. the.. grey?'
Thank youuuu ♥♥
I'm not very good with terminology either so I don't know if it's right, but I get it! ^^

I do like to pay attention to details, which makes it easy to write a lot about art, i wouldn't call that "little" either , there are main aspects to a peice of art that can be applied to any work, which i use and adapt for the spesific piece.

Basically the fundamental properties of a good work of art - Proportions, perspective, shading and lighting, and then where applicable anatomy and placement of detail Every one of the fundamentals i take into consideration and deliver my input in context of the spesific piece of art - On critiques i have written over 600 words (i didnt realize this till i posted it XD - Literally scared myself )

You make it seem so easy I wish I had a gift for words. 600 words is a lot o.o

Words come easy if you have good art to talk about (Though i try and keep it under 200 now lol , dont want to scare anyone off XD)
