Cherishing her rebirth. Awakening to love, in a garden of sweet perfumes. The spirit of passion seen in her eyes. That is the message I hoped to bring to the viewers. Thank you for your wonderful, and most steller review. I am honored.
Comment from yawngie
I see it's an All Time Best so I am not the first one to rate this work as outstanding and exceptional. You have wonderful command of the human figure and the dramatic impact it can create - This is a very complex piece of work with incredible detail - I would have welcomed a note or two about the subject and the intent of, you, the artist. The whole has a Pre-Raphaelite feel about it, worshiping the power and allure of the woman. In this case, she looks less the symbol of power as the passive recipient of the advances of the male figure.

Your review was indepth, and greatly appreciated. I so love the whole allure of the Pre-Raphaelite art. So much passion. So much emotion, and excitement. The clothes especially are amazing. So that is why I chose to draw this picture. It was a challenge I made to myself. I am just grateful that you found it enjoyable. Thank you for your review.

Interesting initial impact. The composition is creative and and shows talent. Good use of light and shadows. The couple remain the center of interest and the fine work keeps me engaged. Good story telling ability.

Comment from Shaker
This is truly amazing. The contrast in light and shade is remarkable as is the expression in the faces. The locks in the hair of the woman highlight how proficient the artists hand is at delivering depth through light and shade. My only critiquing is that the flowers are detailed and contain light and shade contrasting that bring them out but they fall on wooden panels that lacks a little of this contrasting light which is consistent throughout the work. The detailing in the dress is nothing short of WOW and regardless of the wood paneling this piece is so deserving of a six star rating. My hat goes off to you for using a simple tool to deliver a sensational piece.

Absolutely beautiful piece of work. The attention to detail is wonderful. The facial features, flowing hair, attire, roses, and background are perfect. Presented very well. Good storytelling. Enjoyed viewing. Impact, creativity, and presentation are very good. Thanks for sharing.

A stunning image. Is this drawn in pencil? Was wondering about your technique since there is such intricate detail. Flawless execution, viewer feels like I am right there. Lovely composition and emotion comes shining through. Well done and Thanks for sharing!

Thank you so much for the six star rating. I am so grateful, not only for the six stars, but for the fact that you really liked my work. This is drawn in pencil, and blended with a blending pencil.

Beautiful piece of art with good initial impact and nice detail. The story telling ability is good.
I like the sepia touch to this art which makes it look classic.
Thanks for sharing.

I am amazed that there appears to be sepia. I only used a pencil. Thank you for your wonderful review.
