Description Doorway to the soul?
Some people believe the eyes are the door to the soul, others believe they are the keys to the heart. I believe that the eyes tell the story of everyones lives. You just have to look deep enough to see.

I saw a picture of a young actress her name is Rebecka Liljeberg she just has the most amazing eyes even in black and white. I had to do something with it. I think I got the eyes right even if I didnt get the face well.
I hope you enjoy. This one, I'm quite happy with.
There are also many brushes in the background by the fifth muse gallery. Though you really cant tell I messed with it all so much.

comments always welcomed!! THank you!


Please full view! You miss on the real expression if you dont.

Wow - beautiful piece, this! I have a crazy love affair with hooded robes. (See my avatar. XD)

Her eyes are very magnetic; they really draw you in... *continues to stare at them* You've done an excellent job in rendering them - oftentimes when one goes for a realistic eye it ends up looking glazed over and lifeless, but not in this case! Spectacular stuff.

You've truly made the eyes very captivating. I love how the rest of the piece blends together...it's sort of...when you look at a reflection in the water. The rest of the piece are like the ripples in the water...when they finally settle..you realized your looking at something magnificent underneath it all.

If that didn't make sense to you, then I apologize. It's hard to convey an emotion brought on by a beautiful art piece into words.

keep on deviatin'...

the rest of the face is a little flat, but otherwise this is pleasantly haunting.

Beautiful! I love the focus on the eyes, you can tell the meaning of the picture before you read the caption. [which is great!] I really do love it. *feels kind of bad commenting since none of her paintings are posted online* Hehe, Don't mind me! I just, honestly, think this is a nice picture. You have a lot of potential as an artist. :3

Wow the lips and cheeks are just fantastic. The hair is very good too, i like the way it looks like the cloak has been put on over head and the hair hasn't been pulled out yet.


As usual excellent. =Fave

She's very pretty. I love her hair and how it peeks out from beneath the hood of her cape. I love the shape and color of her lips, and her eyes are astoundingly beautiful. They seem to pierce into your very soul and uncover all of your dark secrets.

This picture almost seems magical. It makes me feel as if she's stopped time to take a moment with the viewer, perhaps to seduce him, or even to enthrall him.

Very nice work.

it's kinda eerie i guess from the hood and robe, the eye tell you much about a person. it helps me aviod potentially negative people in my life and what I want from a woman comes from here eyes first. if I don't see it it goes nowhere.
