Hiya!
First off, I checked out your website and I'm super impressed! Many times people will clutter their website with colors that are too bright or it'll be hard to navigate. I was happy to find yours easy to navigate and it had a very professional feel to it. Your gallery is laid out really well and I just had a really nice time looking at your art. Having the black background makes your work stand out even more!
I was just very impressed! Now that I'm done geeking out about your website ;D

Your newest mermaid painting has beautiful colors. Proportions are good and I LOVE the cave!
But, if I may, I feel like a few of your works seem a bit unfinished. I see room for detailing, like in the hair. It doesn't have any dark colors or natural highlights. The water seems too still and glass like. Your use of color is wonderful, but I'd try to spend more time on detailing. Your work is very concept-art like but videogame design has a lot of detailing so I'd love to see you do that!

You can always decide I'm wrong, too hahaha! But your work already has such a strong foundation, I'd love to see more!

@ Moldova; Hi! I'd just like to say thank you for your comment, i totally agree with you and i love that you like my website!
I feel exactly the same with how my work needs more detail - i see the flaws, like the hair not having enough shadows/highlights, and some of the shading on the body was rushed, so were the hands, etc. And i am working on it, i just always feel so excited about finishing a new piece so i automatically rush myself hihi :x Bad habit i know!
I am aiming to become a concept artist, hopefully for a gaming company, so this is certainly something i have to work on more! I'd also like to be more messy, rather than making a million layers and keeping it all neat. I love the painterly look!

I really appreciate your comment, and i will totally work on it!

I can completely feel for you, because I do that all the time. I get so excited that I've finished something (or think I have!) and I am eager to post it but then I miss important detailing. I still do it a lot, especially with my digital art.
So, no worries, I get it! ;D I think you have such a concept style already so I know it's only a matter of time before you're doing game work! ♥

I really like it and I love how you put her in the cave...it brings out the colours of the water which is very well done!

Hi! Finally finished the Night elf piece! I'm not so sure if i should keep the marks on the face or get rid of them, i personally liked it more without - but i suppose a Night elf isn't a Night elf without the marks!



Video will probably be up soon! I really hope you guys & girls like it!
