So here you are, browsing through Elfwood and you come to this place.  Much of the art you see here is from long before I started getting paid for my art and absolutely no commisioned art will ever find its way here. I do art because I love it. If you see something wrong with my art, don't rip it apart, merely tell me how I can improve. Be constructive, I appreciate it.

With that being said, Elfwood does show a reflection of how I've grown as an artist. Many of my pieces are several years old, and at 22, several years puts me at 12 years old. Much of my new art is no longer fantasy and thus I don't display it here.

---------------

I've returned and newly updated all sorts of stuff. I appologize, but I have more or less gutted my gallery. I 've been painting less and less fantasy lately, so if you would like to see my art, perhaps going to my other sites would be best.

Wow! Your art is so emotive and beautiful! Thank you for sharing!

You obviously love drawing and it shows in your art: i love the folds of the cloth, you draw very realistic hair and wings, along with your incredible talent for relaying emotion (Memory is by far my favorite painting in your gallery). As for constructive critiscism: your shading does need a little bit of work, which would add more depth and reality to your people, though that was already covered by Dave and some of your heads end up flat on top, giving the idea that the head has been squashed... if you add more hair on top, that illusion will soon begone!
Congradulations and keep up the good work

All of your pictures have an aura of emotion. The 'memory' one and the 'dont leave angel' pic they reminded me of a friend, a close one who just passed. I am reminded of him in your footsoldier.

All of your pictures are amazing, you have a wonderful gift.

Thankyou for these pictures.

:-) Cristina Diaz-Borda replies: "Isn't that what art is about? It's no good to draw an empty picture."

Wow! Great gallery! I like how all your pictures are so emotional.

:-) Cristina Diaz-Borda replies: "thank you very much. I guess you can tell I use art to express myself."

I’m not a huge fan of constructive criticism, and I have none to offer. Your work is so beautiful it’s indescribable by words. And I love how you are able to combine totally different things such as realism and abstract and put them in one piece. The dreamer is one of my favorites. ( It may not be an example of realism and abstract combined, or is it? My own words even confuse me. ) Anywho, keep up the good work.1311312
