Hi! I´m from

Ladies and gentlemen, we are here to contemplate an example of improvement and progress. Look at the 2016 drawing and compare it with this one: It's extraordinary the change of style and the ultimate proof that with time, effort and dedication you can get to much more and beyond.

Starting with the drawing style, it's incredible. Many tonalities that contrast each other to the point that if the drawing is divided into 4, 4 other drawings are completely different. How extraordinary
The design of the forest is very deep, giving the feeling that it is in a forest and the design of the Silva: Its anatomy, its pose, its dynamism, its dress, its expression, its hair, the central focus of the drawing is very well got and his rod, with a very striking design.

So equally striking that her dress is detached and merges with the background, giving two possible things: Or is the magic of the drawing ...

Or is Thanos using again the Infinity Gems  xD

But in conculsion, it is an extraordinary drawing. A maximum test of self-improvement with the past and that can inspire many to keep evolving and mass 👍: 0 ⏩: 1

I found this through ProjectComment.

This looks very different from the old version. I find the blue area very fascinating. It's tilted in a way that seems to suggest that it might be a portal to another realm, and the blue light gives it a magical atmosphere. The transition from blue to green appeals to me, as well as the shades of purple behind the character, but the reddish purple areas on the right look a bit flat because the narrow trees that are probably implied to be in the distance are not affected by atmospheric perspective and the purple looks rather like a curtain connecting the two closest trees. Looking at the other areas, I can tell that you know how to make atmospheric perspective work, so I'm wondering why the reddish purple area doesn't follow the same principles as the other forest segments.

The ground vegetation is nice to look at, even though it's very rough and speedpaint style, yet it doesn't come off as unfinished because it's not the main target of focus.

Which leads into the character herself. The shadow under the jawline is too much like a line rather than a cast shadow, having the unfortunate effect of making it look like the head is hollow and the neck connects somewhere inside rather than the underside of the chin being a continuous surface. The shading of the tendons is also a bit off. The bold dark red shadows on the side of the head look pretty good and are the sort of a gamble that many non-professional artists shy away from, but I think in this case it pays off. The white highlight on the cheek might be a tad too much but still, overall, I'd say that area is one of the strongest in terms of detail.

The shadow between the face and hair might be a bit too deep when compared to other shadows. Also, seeing how wispy the hair looks, it would be good to introduce a bit more turbulence because no matter how fast she's running, hair that long won't fly perfectly straight. Some strands would also likely be visible behind the shoulder, but they would end earlier than the other ones because they would be originating from the temple that is angled towards the direction she is running.

The arms look a bit too short but not by much.

The running pose looks more like she's partially levitating rather than actually putting her weight on the supporting foot. Running and walking poses are notoriously difficult to draw, at least without reference, so if you can find a reference that matches the pose close enough to be of any use, it can certainly help.

The front edge of the dress could benefit from some more hard edges but leaving the train wispy and soft fits the thought of the left side of the picture dissolving into a real of fantasy where things are not as concrete as on the right side. The staff could also use some more definition and hard edges, and placing the green gem closer to the body would help to keep the composition more tight-knit, but it would require angling the head of the staff more towards the viewer and could introduce a challenging requirement for foreshortening.

The use of purple shadows in the dress is downright awesome and makes me wish I could do something like that. The dynamics of the way the skirt flows and spreads open are overall a very strong visual eyecatcher and only the anatomical problems in the front leg break the illusion. Actually, on some level, I'm sort of glad that this picture isn't perfect because if it was, the effect would be tremendous. It feels like this picture is loaded with magic potential and ironing out the kinks might make it run out of the screen. We wouldn't want those black creatures to escape.

Wow this looks absolutely lovely. Soft yet lively textures with well places shading and amazing atmosphere. The level and placing of details is just right and I gotta say I love the choice of gentle colors you have here.  The background purples and blues work so nicely with the foreground warm tones. It’s also nice that the background is rather simple – gives the character more shine.

If I’d have to point out something I’d say the lighted areas could you a little bit more strong highlights (for instance some glow on her staff or on the grass) to make some parts pop up. But as it is it’s already well set apart from the darker areas. The anatomy of her legs is also a bit off (or it looks like the torso it slightly too short compared to the legs), but not too disturbingly.

By the way I love how the creatures after her are merely shadows in the dark and it actually took me a second look to see them there. Definitely gives the picture more meaning. This could work so well as a fairy tale illustration or a book spread. Lovely work Also very nice to see in comparison your older work definitely improvement both in style and coloring.

I'd say the same thing, because this is a very 'magical' piece of art. I really love it.
