That house in the background looks incredibly inviting. Guess that makes sense given her nature. : ) You have a nice way of using colour to set mood.

The light in the picture is wonderful.I love how the colour of the straws returns in Brigid´s dress.She looks like a part of the forest.

This is positively brilliant! The coloring! The texture! The lighting! The trees are magnificent! The lady is perfect! The sky is mesmorizing! Did I mention that I love those trees ? 12

Keep up the AMAZING work. If my compliment isn't enough to inspire you to keep drawing, then here's my threat: Keep up the AMAZING work ... or I'll hunt you down and whack you with a salmon. 12

aaaanyway ...

While everying about this painting is wonderful, I just have to comment on the dress. Very few Elfwood artists realize that white is never really white. It's always some shade of pink or blue, or lavender, or something like that. It sounds strange, but all you have to do is look at this lady's dress. It's obvious that it's a white dress, but there is in reality very little actual white on it. Good job!

Oh what an amazing atmosphere this picture has! I love it very much. Reminds of autumn, home, and happiness. Beautiful job.

She’s my namesake, haha. This is an awesome pic! I love the "illuminaion" (big words 4ever) and the shadows. Awesome job.
