Thank you for use of this stunning work--it makes a striking accompaniment to my two act monologue script STILL AWAITING THE ONE: HIS-N-HERS. Cheers. LIZ

CONGRATULATIONS, nice, fair and deserving judgment!
How does it feel to become a first-time winner? Jittery? Just let it sink in...you deserve it.
Nice green texture as in raw grapes .
Dramatically impressive.
Rich characterization as conveyed by the subjects facial expressions.
Intense tonal value of lights and shades.
Great design concept.
Subdued lighting technique.
Sorry for the post review...
Late is better than never; but it is best never to be late...

I love the interplay of emotions expressed in such vivid color and the symmetry is outstanding. Is this meant to portray an interracial relationship? Even if the love of my life was not, in fact,black as the night, i have always found beauty in the contrast of flesh tones.This is just a stellar representation of love.I love the pre- Raphaelites also, always have. I love the romanticized realism and classical themes and the deep rich colors, especially the gorgeous pre- Raphaelite reds and oranges.

More stars if I had them. This is an interesting subject and your painting tells the story well. The wood nymph appears ethereal and lovely, Bacchus besotted. The eye contact, expressions, and boy language tell me the lady is coy but intends to know this man better.
