Good to see your work again Scot, though dang it's been awhile! She's as awesome as ever, again those lovely eyes.

Happy Valentine's your way too!

She is lovely :)

Beautiful.

I like the colours. Very elegant.

She is absolutely adorable!

Beautiful....I love the background and how her hair flows. Your work is always a delight!

Wow this is rich Scot. I love how her hair flips up from her forehead back, so luxuriant and full. I also like that pre-surprised look she has, as if someone's just caught her attention and she's yet to react. The lighting's beautiful too, though I have to admit I got a sudden yearning for Lucky Charms (a Yank cereal - you're only missing the "green clovers") upon seeing her dress. :^)

Good stuff. (My only complaint is that these don't come often enough! ;^)

This is beautiful!

Love that batique looking background & the glow around her. Very pleasant painting with a wonderful pallette as usual!

Oh she is lovely!

Hey that's some pretty nice stuff! Like your paint below too. :^)

This is beautiful, I looked at your work, love the pastel colors you use, they are so light and airy.

She is lovely!

Very nice work, Scott...she does seem alittle prickly, but beautifully done!! You have quite the talent!!

This pic is enchanting I don't want to stop looking at it. :)

She is enchanting. I love your soft colors!

She's lovely...and that is good advice about prickly women;). You should come and sell your work on Etsy~ we have a lovely group of fantasy artists there who would make you feel right at home, and Im sure your pieces would be very popular!!

The fact that she has light behind her & is emersed in soft pastels (a being of light, in other words) is what makes her non-menacing (to me, anyway). The rose is the one thing that stands out, but the symbolism of the red rose is love with passion (and of course, passion can sometimes mean anger, but mostly it means desire).



Anyway, gorgeous color with the blend of pinks, purples & blues with the blonde & touch of green around the eyes & in the stem.

This is beautiful, Scot!



Caprice

Subtle changes do make a difference...it's absolutely beautiful!

I love the finished product! I really appreciate that you have taken a bit of time to explain the process as well...to me this sort of creating is just a magical process and it is fun to be able to follow your steps.



When I first looked at her I thought she was just sweet an demure, but when I looked in her eyes I can see the steely determination and protectiveness...being a mum, I recognize that silk and steel "dont mess with my own" expression;-)

So magical!!
