Artist's Comments

What do we all dream about? Admit it, we all want to find that perfect prince or princess. But remember, You might have to kiss a whole lot of frogs before You kiss the right one. So, keep on kissing and keep on dreaming!

Done in Photoshop CS2. This is originally a big file, so I will add detail images [link] [link]

Edit: I gave the skirt more texture as suggested and I think it looks better this way.:D

Second edit: Changed the waistline a bit and added some more to the little hairpiece.

Thank you!

Kiss Me by *Sussi1 is so marvelous in the use of colors and the expression of the face. Full view is a DEFINITE must because you will see all the details put into the frogs. You should also have a look at this artist's entire gallery which is chock full of talent and imagination! (Suggested by `karemelancholia and Featured by ^JunkbyJen)

Stunning my dear :clap: The face is perfect, I love how you did the dress, however the bottom of the dress looks like... uhm... unfinished, comparing to the top (which is gorgeous :clap:) Maybe that's just me but I'd like to see there some more patterns, maybe a lil more defined folds... Other than that it's really wonderful. The hair is very real and overall the color palette gives this serene look. And yeah, I kissed some frogs before I found the one and only :D

Yes, You could be right, I may try to edit it, I can see that now.It's very good with input ideas, since I think you really don't see it the way others do, one just have an image in your own head, so you get sort of blind!

That's totally true :nod: When I was painting "F" which was kinda new to me since I rarely paint b&w portraits I had great help from my mentor who is in fact sort of teaching me... for not better description :D Anyways the way she paints is stunning and she gave me some good advice which is why my style, let's call it ^^; has changed since October last year. I mean... yeah, I met her in November... but in October I almost didn't paint... so first painting after I met her was "Sakito"... :ohmygod: Nah, she's a great friend and amazing painter, that's all. But third eye helps, definetely.

Maybe there should be a WIP forum thread where you could get some serious input how to improve,or maybe there is one?

To be honest there are millions forums not only on dA but I don't really see the idea for them. I mean... there are only few people I met in my life - actually two :D - who are able to understand that the WIP is UNFINISHED which means that some elements may be redone, changed, deleted, composition may be changed also, even color palette... And most of people tend to judge unfinished work as finished, without giving any wise advice. I know it's difficult but sometimes there's a need to be told straight forward - NO, that's a big no! But the person saying this has to know what she/he is talking about :D That's why usually I don't ask for help, unless it's `nykolai
