"april" by Howard faria

*is speechless and awed* *.* ohhhhh my fae. Your artwork is extraordinary!!!! It has seriously got to be some of the most beautiful artwork I have yet to see, no exaggeration. I love your usage of colors and the delicateness of everything you draw. It's not even like it is just drawing or art when I look at your artwork...it is like you are creating life, a whole alternate reality. I LOVE it!!!! ^-^

This one is one of my favourites. I like the floating of her beautiful hair and the extremely wonderful wings. Amazing pic!

I love her hair, and flowers and the lightning that falls over her body but I think that her arm isn't correct it's to small in the middle, but I still think it's beautiful

This is a very sweet picture! Well done. I love the coloring in the wings!!!

She is the embodiment of Spring!

I love this picture, but how 'bout showing their faces?

Every beginning is another beginning's end.

I love the melancholy expression of this piece--so ironic since it's an image of newness and rebirth, but so appropriate since its freshness arises from the ashes of winter. Beautiful, Howard. Just beautiful.

I adore the way you draw hair; It looks so light and soft. And the way you place it really accentuates the beauty of it. The way you draw flowers so easily astounds me; I've never been able to draw such gorgeous flowers or humans for that matter. I love the iridescent look to her wings - sort of like the shine on bubbles.thanks leanne^^ i LOVE hair! i think i could play with it all day^^ sometimes i never know how i'm gonna do flowers till the last minute. heh, i get lucky sometimes! but i'm sure you'll have no problem with it, if you did it a lot...i mean, time was, i couldn't draw ANYTHING. but hey, bubbles...yeah, wish one would sit still for me! i LOVE the colors in bubbles! hehee ^^

ooooooooooooooooooo purdy o_O

Self-taught, eh? So am I (for the most part), and unfortunately, I am no where near this good (yet)!! I hope to one day be as swell as you in the art of drawing. This chicky is absolutely gorgeous.
