This is a lovely painting. You are really skilled with watercolour. I really like your style of drawing, it is really original. She has a great expression on her face.

Animism is without a doubt the most interesting subject for art. I love personifying (or animal-ify-ing) seasons, emotions, and ideas. I really love this interpretation of Spring because it's different than the others you'd see in the 'woods--you show her as a child rather than an adult woman. I like the childish look of her face, too--ah, since I know from the forums that you're a Froudian, I take it you know what I'm referring to when I say that it reminds me of the Primrose Faery from GF/BF--the one on the cover. I like how you use an illustrative style but exaggerate it some using abstraction. Very unique. Keep up the good work, Tamara!

:-) Tamara Turner replies: "OOOPS!Actually, she is an adult! Perhaps she looks childish, because somewhere I still see the world through the eyes of a child. I find other views of my work fascinating since it lets me look at my work with a fresh pair of eyes. Thank you for the comments!"

Again, I love the expressions your characters bear. They are so peaceful and content with themselves. I am still in awe with your handling of colors. I simple love it!
