This is a painting I made a few years ago. It's supposed to be an elf doing some sort of magig dance. I have never finished it and now I don't want to touch it anymore because I kinda like the way it is now.

Beautiful! Love the atmosphere! I would call it ’dancing with fire’^^

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thanks, It looks like fire but that wasn’t the original plan. But It turned out looking like that."

Oh, I like it. Nice use of color there. Looks really nice with the Silhouette of the elf.

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thanks, I’m really into the silhouette pictures lately"

I also love it, it is very magical and has an undefinable beauty about it...wonderful piece of art!

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thanks, I’m glad you like it."

wow ur really good at painting backrounds!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 sweet it kinda looks like that elf is dancing in fire or like in lava 1

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thanks, When I don’t put much detail in my backgrounds they turn out fine bt when I ad more detail it spoils the pic. Gotta practise on that."

I really like this one, too. There’s simplicity here, and a good air of ambiguity surrounds all the unimportant details. You were right to leave little to no background, or at least, it turned out really well for this. And it’s warm like a fire, so I could stare at it for hours! 1

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thank you for your wonderfull comment. Comments like these really make my day."

I really like it the way it is....The red tones are amazing....And the figure seems to be floating in a world of its own....

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Jeah, like she is dancing in a trance."

I love this - it is so hot! So much movement in the picture!

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thank you so much for the tag. I’m honoured. I’m glad you like my work."

The colors are quite lovely and the body lines are well done. You should do more work with silhouettes. The simplicity of it is really inspiring.

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "I like silhouettes so maybe there is more to come. Thank you for commenting."

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thanks, I really enjoyed painting this piece."

I really like this picture, it creates such a secial atmosphere! I love the colours you’ve used, and her stance is very nice. (She kinda reminds me of Huldra - a Norwegian fairytale character, with her long hair and ’wildness’.)

:-) Saskia H. Suurling replies: "Thank you for your comment. I really enjoyed painting this piece. I’m glad you like it."
