This is dramatic and beautiful. It seems like also a symbolic message that can reach many viewers in different ways. I sense hope and relief in this.

I enjoyed viewing this,

Alex

Very well observed piece. The eyes stand out as do the highlights on her skin. She seems to be making the most of the refreshing rain while others hide (sensibly) indoors. Nicely done.

Hi Maureen. This is a beautiful expressive Illustration of a woman enjoying the cool rain as it caresses her face and hair. The high lights work well. A very difficult position to draw and you have done it justice with your signature style in soft pastels. This is very deserving of a six or more , But I give what I got. Ray

Hi Maureen, The first thing I noticed in this were the eyes! Love the intense bright blue color. Love the look on your subjects face as she gazes into the poring rain. She almost looks as if she's praying. I like the way you show the raindrops on her face and hair. I can almost feel the cold rain hitting her. Very cool and expressive image.
Nice job! :o) Nancy

Another really nice work of art. The way you added the rain against the black really gives it depth. The shading is wonderful. The details are very nice. Overall this is a wonderful presentation. Thanks for sharing.

Excellent pastel artwork with the details that makes us feel we are in the rain with this lady as she is picking up every droplet coming her way.
Wonderful shading and colors and overall beautiful presentation.

Your use of colour temperature to create mood is exceptional. The warmth and coolness play off each other perfectly, evoking both emotion and atmosphere. A beautiful work. Well done!

Really nice piece of artwork Maureen you sort of get the impression of this girl standing in the rain[for whatever reason] as most of us would shelter from it,the pastel effect works well in this one...Brian
