My love is in the roses

Alwats wanted someone to write me a critque, so instead of writing a regular comment i decided to work a bit harder and write one.

Visioin and Originality: 3.5 because well, to be honest - we see many beautiful girls with pretty eyes drawn on them here on dA.

Impact: 4 even though the idea is fairly commin, the execution of it is beatiful and gentle.

Technique: got 4.5. even though the work is almost perfect, threethings slightly bothered me:
1. the hair has no highlights of light coming from the pendant, as it should be
2. the skin is slightly wax-like. it happens when the highlights are too white and hard edged. it's a common thing in drawing, but you might've inteded to do it.
3. the red light on the chin is stronger than the red light above the necklace. should be other way around.

all in all - a stunning piece of art.
