I add this as a :+fav: because it's stunning! I don't know where to start; the colors, composition, technique, feathers, dress,... EVERYTHING is wonderful! It is my favorite of today and I have watched a lot so far! That tree is gorgious and I cannot get over the beauty of this work! :faint: I need to shut up now and stare a bit more. :XD: GREAT!

Perhaps one day I will have such patience. But until then I will have to just admire the work of those around me that already have it. :meditation:

Ohhh so many colors and details. Those buds are amazing! This is so vibrant and lovely..it really gets the youthful exuberance of spring across.

Hmm I was looking at her feet and it occurred to me there's a common string throughout your work that I thought I might bring to your attention.

Spring's feet are drawn as if they are almost exactly eye level with your viewer, when the viewer is essentially at eye level with her upper thighs, meaning more of the tops of her feet need to be shown along with more of the tops of the toes.

Like how you have them in this image: [link]

Otherwise, it makes it seem as if her calves and legs are abruptly too short. Hopefully this helps with future works!

Even so, she's a lovely vision:D I look forward to seeing the rest.

Actually, I orignally drew her feet as they were in that Iolani picture, but they didn't look right. Then, after I took a peek in that anatomy book you got for me, I noticed that a frontal view, barefoot, generally looks like this: [link] :D

And that's a full frontal view. I think the feet are fine (on Spring), but it's her calves that are awkward - I think it's because I originally drew the calves as if they were going to be paired with the 'Iolani-style feet' and then realized they should be drawn with the 'correct-front-style' feet. Also, I drew her thighs without the proper curve that calves should have. Next drawing, though, I'll definitely make sure those thighs and feet are correctly angled! ^_^
