I love the uniqueness of your depiction of this Queen. The pyramid shapes add so much to the story and the beauty of this piece. The way you have done this I find so intriquing.

This piece is simply astounding. I am simply mouth open thunder struck by this wonderful combination of Egyptian traditional rendition of the Queen with, I guess, fractionalism - It's beautiful.

The colors are varied and are well coordinated, each contributes and supports the theme.

The first thing that I saw that caught my eye was the eyes very Egyptian.

Well done piece of original art loaded with impact ... B-)) Bob

I like the geometrical shapes throughout this painting. The cubist style is very attractive and I like how you used lighter colors. I also really like that you incorporated a pyramid shape. You have done such a nice job with the queen's facial features and her tapered headdress.

Oh my Nefertiti....this is a stunning art work of this gorgeous Egyptian Queen and you have captured her personality as well. So many creative and unique pieces went into this art work. The green eyes are so beautifully created with the wonderful headdress and gorgeous delicate necklace. Good facial proportions and body proportions and nice facial features. Your details are incredible. Captivating work! Your background created behind her image with the pyramids in different colors makes this an outstanding work. A good contender for the contest and good luck. A creative and talented art work!

Like this one a lot, Linda. I think it very creative, original and a great contest entry. It is different than most of your artwork. Love the style, design, composition and color choices. Those green eyes really grab your attention. The way you divided the artwork up into triangles and other shapes is very interesting. You should do well in the contest. Good luck to you, Linda.

Being profoundly ignorant on the subject, I rarely comment on this type of art. All I can say is every time I go by it I stop to look again. I just like it very much.
