As a non artist your description of how you created this really reminded me of how little I know about and drawing. Your keen insight and 'feel' for things is a gift that is not available to many. I like the colors that you used for the models and for the background as they are both complimentary and accent each other at the same time. Great work here Carl. A cyber 6 ~ Steve

Very good painting of two young ladies with great attention to details. Good skin tones and nice blue background. I like their similar facial expressions as if they have just noticed the viewer, perhaps interrupting a conversation. :) Good composition with relaxed and comfortable body language. Well done, I like it. ~Alveria

Very neutral color scheme. The bodies of the women are well formed. You did bring out something in their faces. I especially like the blonde hair, very detailed. I did notice they were both the same length. Was that intended? I personally like fuller breasts in nudes but you did a terrific job on both of them. Im glad you have so many awards and recognitions. Hopefully many more!

    Thank you for your five vote and your comments. If the question about length is in regards to the hair, the answer is yes it was planned to be the same length. Also, thank you for your comment about the awards and recognitions.

    Thank you for your five vote and your comments. And it pleases me that you looked long enough at it to see that they were looking back at you. You saw the plurality of existence.

Hi Carl

THis is a beautiful entry into this contest. THanks for supplying your detailed notes and indeed the look of the subjects is the most captivating aspect despite the fact they are nude. Good luck in the contest. R

Nice job on this.
Per your narrative, I think you have achieved your goal.
The brushwork is quite nice as it gives a softness and glow to the piece.
I also like the relatively plane background.
My one comment is that the model of the right, her nose seems a little off. I am not sure why. It could be the highlighting and secondary shadow.
Great piece!
Thank you for sharing!

    Thank you for your comments and five star vote. Yes I had problems with her nose. I decided to let the proportion measurements dominate my decision. I will take another look at the secondary shadow. I appreciate your nose comment.

This is beautiful, with a real sense of purity and gentleness. Your choice of posturing these two add to the loveliness of this picture. Wonderful art.

    Thank you for your five star vote and your comments. Looking at your work I am beginning to wonder if you use a stubble to get those soft shading exchanges.
