"Elemental Dragon of Wind" by Tiffany ´Lost Angel´ King

No wonder she feels empty and sad-no one's thought to leave her a comment yet. So I'm gonna come to her rescue!(I don't know if I'm supposed to be here or not-I've been digging so hard into finding different art sites, and I can't believe I stumbled onto one that features someone I know of, so I hope you don't mind the message since I'm not a member). Something about this pic seemed withdrawn and special. It has a surprising amount of depth(I'm not talking about spacial contrast, but the ability of the picture to make you think and care about the subject matter).The sadness in her face, delicate flowing shoulder blades, and gentle hand clasp are truly convincing. It makes you want to embrace her with comfort and warmth! The direction of the hair emphasizes the flow of emotion she exudes. Also, the idea for thin dragonfly wings is genius, because they seem to add to her sense of fragility. You have good composition in all your work. Where you place the figure on the picture plain is chosen well. Maybe the cloth thing on her wings protects the area of sensitivity near the base of the wings that would exist as they connect to more and more nerve endings the closer they are to her spinal region. But how would I know? My wings were clipped like most people when I was a baby-like circumcision. (Where do you think shoulder blades come from???) Well, I'll get going. You convey a unique beauty through that pencil!

Tiffany 'Lost Angel' King replies: "Wow, that's gotta be the longest comment I've ever gotten on a picture! (But I'm certainly not complaining!) I feel bad for ya, losing your wings and all. I love mine! But anyways, thanks for all the great things you said about this pic, and my art in general. I'll have to make some time to do more stuff so I can keep on getting these great comments! ^_^"

I had to return to clear up a mistake I made in my last message when I described her "delicate flowing shoulder blades". What shoulder blades?! I meant collar bone, and I was refering to the beautifull simplicity in the way you pulled off the anatomy of her sad gesture. What was I thinking? I can't even see her back! That would be like me saying "I like the way you drew her feet in this drawing! And good job on the cat! Ps: That sunset is amazing!" Sorry for the mistake. If my nose starts running, I'll know my brain is probably melting! The reference to shoulder blades at the end was intended though, supposing that our shoulder blades might be little stubs from clipped wings! Anyways, keep up the beautifull work you create Tiffany.

Tiffany 'Lost Angel' King replies: "Yeeesh, look at this. It's so much shorter than your last comment, you're slacking! No no wait, i'm just kidding!! But i knew what you meant when you said about the shoulder blades thing. Although I, myself, thought that sunset in the pic was pretty amazing, how 'bout you? ^_^ Ah, me and my non-humorous humor! I'll have to work on that!"

The linework is very nice. A little shading would help bring out the delicate wings.

Tiffany 'Lost Angel' King replies: "I'll keep that suggestion in mind. The wings are a little complicated, and would be really pretty with a colorful background to show them off. I'll have to think of a nice pose for her so I can really try to show them off!"

This is just amazing, so flowy and graceful! She looks so much alive, and I just love how her hair flows. You are very good at drawing hands as well, I often find that one of the hardest parts. Great job with the expression as well, such sad eyes! Poor girl.
