This is one of my favorites that you've ever drawn. I do agree with Morayah that the watch is a bit distracting though; otherwise, I absolutly love it!

Beside the colors, Benjamin style specialize in "cheating" lol. He always draw the bg very lose, but the character face he will put effort into making it solid. I think if you touch up her face, will give this painting a focal area.

um, you asked for feed back, so i'll try.
okay first of all i really like the colours, and for something that did not originally have line art, the forms and shapes are really good i also like how you used a full range of colours, like the purple in the hair. i like how the face was shaded too and the eyes.
Um, though the arm, the hand is fine, its actually a very good hand (since i cannot draw hands, they hate me Dthe watch; compared to the detail and attention to it in, for example the hair, the watch becomes something of a distraction, i think a bit more work there is needed. Also the clothing and sleve, this might be because i have a deep set and instinctual hatred of the smudge tool, i think a bit of blending instead of smudging could have been used there. i think the colours are too different for the smudge tool to work effectively in this area. a bit of manual blending with different opacity brushes and the colour picker and perhaps some smudging after that to keep consistency with the rest of the piece.

i know how important feedback is and sometimes how difficult it is to get on this site without the Critique widget thingy, so i hope this helps you. Over all i like this piece, so i think i will fav it =]

appropriately named, like the fiery tones used. pictures withouline art are usually first to be flowing hair pics

This looks really awesome!

Drawing without line art can be a pain to make things stand out, but I think you did a really nice job

I love the bright colors and how the face is so defined
