The color scheme of this painting is limited to pink and blues, which suggests that she has lost her partner; this is further reinforced through the two birds on the side of the woman's head. One bird id mostly blue and is translucent which may symbolize her partnerβs death; he is fading away from this world. Only the top half of the other bird is painted, which is pink, symbolizing the girl who feels incomplete without her partner.
There are more faded imaged of birds flying away within this painting which may suggest her hopes, dreams, faith and happiness leaving her along with her partner. There is a dove flying away from her face which is a symbol of peace, suggesting that her partner is at peace.
The body language of the female captures the pain, and the confusion beautifully, creating a haunting and sorrowful atmosphere. The distant look in the femaleβs eyes creates the impression that she is dreaming about her past . This is further reinforced by the subtlety of the colors making it appear as she herself is fading away from reality because she is living in the past, not the present. The fact that she is painted in mostly blue, further reinforces the hold that her attachment with her partner has on her, as well as highlighting her sorrow and grief.
The watermarks on her face suggest that she has been crying, and the tears are still running down her cheeks.
The lack of color in this piece and the plain background shows that emptiness she feels.
I just love this painting, its so beautiful, haunting and emotional with so many symbolic elements. Please keep up your amazing work xxx

I the detail and the technique of the birds in her hair. The way you have incorporated the bird into the side of her face. It is almost like seeing two different pictures at the same time.
You have really captured the emotions in her body language and expression on her face. The pain and confusion has been beautifully conveyed though the colours and technique. The preoccupied stance in her eye gives her a day dreaming state.
The colours that you have used give her sorrow and maybe a glint of hope too. I really like the way you put so much detail into the lips and nose. They really make a good feature of the face, as well as the bird.
The water marks on her face makes it seem like she has been crying and she still has them running down her cheeks.
Personally i love this piece of art work and i am mesmerized by it too. Well done!

Their is nothing I can pick out on this watercolor. The way the drip flows down the page does not ruin it, it makes it seem more intresting. The mask (looks sorta like a butterfly) makes the women seem majestic and mysterious. I love how you didn't exactly paint all the places that don't exactly need it, though I would have fixed the left shoulder as in making it a bit smoother and changing the way the purple next to the pink looks. Also the chest seems a little flat. I think it should be fixed out a bit more for a rounder look. The way the hair looks makes it seem as if something has been captured inside. but when i look at the eye it looks a little confusing but still able to tell where the iris and pupil are. Overall, the picture is beautiful and well colored, shaded, and planned.

She appears breathless. As if something has struck the air out of her lungs. Leaving her in a defenseless position what she is hesitate to allow the viewer to see.
The picture does a good job of bringing attention to the face, then drifting to the birds, and down the body. Rendering of the face and hair was done very well. But the hand seems to have been only sketched in. A few details instead of a wash of a hand would leave the work stronger. Giving the audience not only an insight into the subjects mind, but their body language.
A sense of loss can be felt throughout the picture. It may have been a child, or one of her parents. The pink on her shoulder gives the impression it was her father who once held her.
The layered white dove around the eye could have been layered differently. Because of the values around the eye, the wing makes the dove look flat; forcing the illusion of dept to be broken. Perhaps if the birds was flying more towards the viewer it would appear more like a metaphor than a symbol.
The way you pushed the colours around her neck was very well done. When I look at the neck I feel some kind of dreamy atmospheric environment. Maybe she just came out of the shower? Her hair is done is similar way. As the colours rise out of her, it appears they are also drawing out her memories.
The contrast of the white boarder along the sides keeps the picture flowing vertically off the page. Making this piece perfect in a collection or with a simple dark frame proudly displayed on someone's wall.
This is a good picture. Your abilities to combine technical execution and a emotional response is marvelous. I hope I was in some way helpful, and I do not mean any of my words as negative. You have a very strong picture what few have the abilities to produce.

I cannot believe I have stumbled across the artist who has created such a beautiful piece that has been hanging in my room for approximately 4-5 years now. I am shocked that I didn't find out about you before, doesn't help that the person who gifted it to me never mentioned that he bought it from you.
I just wanted to say great work, this piece seriously made me stronger, as I was going through a tough time with the loss of a loved one and in a weak state of mind due to stress. I really love your art
