Very interesting concept. The profile is very impressive. The curve of the eye has tremendous realism. The light reflecting off the eye give so much DOF. Your skin tones are great. you should be a make-up artist. The use of the hairline to reduce the area of light drives our line of sight directly to the glistening eye. Nice work.

Very nice piece, we are immediately drawn to the shiny blue eye! You have created this partial face well and I like this side view into her soul. The eye is well shaped and your attention to detail is appreciated. The eye is nicely emphasized by her well shaped brow and her delicate eyelashes.
Well presented! Good entry for this contest! Best wishes to you!

This piece is different; and different is good. Your descriptive summary is great. As far as your hard work creating this piece, it definitely paid off. Great, great detail.

Comment from Daphne Oberon


A very photo realistic eye! My admiration! This is a very seemingly innocent eye -- could be a bit surprised or startled. Since you did such a fine job of this it would be interesting to see a series of eyes in exactly the same face with different expressions, like disapproval, decisiveness and so on, maybe by showing tension around the eye, enlarging or downsizing the pupil, squinting the lids..I just like you point out in your text! Again, my admiration!

    Thank you so very much, artist Daphne. Your encouraging review, helpful insight, and suggestion about the different expressions. At least one other reviewer mentioned the "surprised or startled" elements. Also, thanks so much for the "6". I really appreciate it.
Comment from pixs


Your eye is awesome it has perfect details and even sparkles with a nice color of blue and appears to look pretty real as the lease's which could use a little more work but it is only my opinion adds a shadow of lighting details which comes together well.....I only wish she was looking at me instead of looking to the left.....the hair could use some work too but it is and eye contests ......who care's....good luck

This is excellent. The eye is especially well facetted with those pins of light. The eyelashes are realistic as is the brow. Skin tones are smooth and add your stylistic modern approach... unusual angle side on .. overall a nice rendition.

Hi Glena, You definitely know how to give the eye a liquidy crystal look. I think it's beautiful! I like the lashes too. The facial features show expression. I don't know how you did it but I see shock and/or surprise within you image. It's amazing what you can show in a small area of the face. Very Nicely Done! Good Luck in the Contest!

Comment from CorbyLinda


This is my favorite so far. The eye is so surprised. It's glossy look is appealing. I love how you were able to get her eyelid and eyelashes to look real.
The colour of the skin is so natural and soft.

Very lovely and a great entry to the contest.

Linda

Comment from cleo85


Your artwork ignites the imagination of the viewers. I like the surreal touch. That the viewer has to decide if he/she sees a person, or a mirage of a soul is exiting. Your attention to detail is impressive. The artwork is well composed. The tight framing is impressive. The composition is balanced.
