Very nice pointillism drawing using your pens. The body is well proportioned. This must have taken some time to accomplish. You've done a great job here. Laprap

I like the impressionist feel to this piece..the color choice is balanced. very strong visual symbolism. the story of eve and the apple is beautifully tragic with regards to how easily innocence can be corrupted.well done

The colors are bright. The form of the woman looks real. The apples are shaded well, with variation of red and white, which adds to a real appearance.

This is an interesting presentation of the female body. Nudity in a intriguing and aesthetic style. I like that the whole drawing is stylized. The viewer is free to interpret it by his/her own fate. We might be see apple our flowers among the green, but we understand for what she is longing. She reaches above her own small understanding of the universe as people through history reached for knowledge.
The drawing is well executed. The female body has exact proportions and the shading gives the right perspective. The colors are realistic and pleasant.

I have tried pointillism --it is a LOT of work and effort. So I commend you for having the dedication to do a detailed work in this method. Your composition is very nice. Your gal's body position and placement are very good. Nice details and light effect.

This is awesome the way you have done it. I like the way you got the colors to look like they are blended together. The way you did her and the way you put everything together are excellent. Good luck in the contest.
