A very nicely composed image. I like the way the skirt is spread out on the floor although I have never seen a ballerina in such attire. She sure has long legs. A great looking painting.

Wonderful painting of the ballerina floating on the water, great imagination and beautiful presentation, like one of them in the Swan lake ballet. Perfect black background suits it so well.
Great details and her is posture is so graceful!

This is a beautiful piece. The sharp contrast gives it a really dramatic feel. The details you captured in the fabrics are beautiful. Your grasp of her anatomy is impressive. You really show your skills with the shadowing and shading. Well done

very nice... The dancer colors and floor colors seem to compliment each other. The dark background makes her pop. Good drawing, and the skin tones, shading and the contrast are very good.

I'm a fan of your ballerina paintings! I love the dramatic, dark background and how it draws the viewers attention to the main subject. You also did a great job with the draping of the cloth. Good luck!

A good looking image posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that ballerina. Wonder if she is resting there or performing part of her routine? Colours and tones are good. Nicely painted!

This is gorgeous! The detail and soft strokes add elegance to the piece which I feel is an important thing to have when it comes to drawing a picture such as this.
The pose she's in is perfect and your proportions are spot on. Good job!!!

Good painting of the ballerina except I may not get the meaning of where the leg should be on her right. Really nice strokes in the foreground and in the background with the flow of the light. The composition of the entirety is pleasant.

This ballerina has a beautiful and striking pose, very well done. The details of her gown are well done and pleasing to the composition. I like the dark background and gray foreground. Nice use of light. Good work!
