Artist's Comments

This is my final project for Mixed Media and I love the way that it turned out. I'm much more pleased with the way that the figure was rendered than with the background, but it also gives it a surreal feel that was a little hard to capture. Any comments would be appreciated, I still have a day to change things.

*scratches head* I don't remember it having background color when I saw it today...oh well. It looks awesome though. I like the way you did the lettering and lighting. The figure looks great as well; the use of monochromaticism in blue gives it a soft look and contrast with the warmer, more saturated colors of the background. It has great contrast; she really sticks out but in a good way. Anyway, nice job; I hope you do well on it, and fav +...ich liebe die attraktive frau...

This turned out really great :aww: At 1st glance I thought it was a heavily filtered photomanip. I had to take a look at it fullview to realize that it wasn't. (of course I could've read the description or details ... but, lol ...). The woman is incredibly sexy. Is her skin blueish from lighting or is she other-worldly?

This is a wonderful piece. I love the blue tone and the surrealism of it.

Wow, thanks for that! To think that it looks good enough to be a photo, that's high praise. In answer to your question, the skin is blue from lighting, because of the hindu scene at the end of the Moulin Rouge movie. That inspired it as well. Thank you again for the comment!
