I painted this nymph with leaves and flowers springing from her in a natural way , since she is a child of nature.

I agree with the pessimistic viewer she looks strained and the chest and neck are to dark but i love it very creative

I love how you've used the watercolour... your style is beautiful and unique.

In a strange way this reminds me of Matisse's "Woman with a Hat", although it's a bit different. I like this a lot. Much more natural looking than most of the other wood nymphs I've seen.

I just happened upon this site and this artwork, but I thought I would share my perspective, especially after reading 'pessimistic viewer's comments. Perhaps I should realize how telling the handle is.? Anyway, I think this nymph is beautiful and drawn with great focus. The forehead is clearly hidden under the leaves and the contrast between the neck and face is evidence of a strong light (perhaps the sun)and that the viewer's focus should stay on the nymph's face. It's lovely!

Like your style. Its Japanese/Chinese without being manga.
