Description *FULL VIEW PLEASE!* There's lots of little things to be seen! XD

Why is she playing the harp in the middle of a meadow? ... I think the better question is why aren't you! XD
Anyways! This involved some pretty intense background colouring that I'm thinking of touching up and resubmitting....I posted it now though in order to get some feedback about how it is so far, and what I should work on! I'm especially going to work on eliminating those evil white spots that sneak up on me no matter how long I colour! XD but I will vanquish them yet!

Critiques and Comments are very much appreciated!!

Wow, this is really detailed. As a harpist, I love the fact that you got her hands right! A lot of times, peole draw people playing harps, and their hands are being held the right way to actually play a harp!

k, this is like, the most impressive piece you've ever done, except of course the fanart for me! 8D THE DEEEETAIL!!! All the leaves!! The yellow in the leaves goes so well with the gold on the harp, and I love the girl's hair, and all the different colorful birds give the piece some needed new colors! CUTE FOXES! Only critique would be that the grass blends too much into the leaves - I think it should be a different shade to differentiate it perhaps. But AWESOME JOB GEEZ.

Thank you very very VERY much!!! It's hard to get used to this new style of complimenting! 8D I agree with the background though! As I was colouring everything started to mosh together...like the front row of an emo concert except instead of black there was green...and I tried to stop it but had about as much success as a policeman would at said concert! LOL! So after that tangent! Thanks again!!

This is by far your best yet. Nice job on the harp! those strings and all the detail look like they'd take forever! And I love the color scheme you used. the girl's dress and hair look very very realistic. :] and you know, all the leaves, and the birds, and the animals are bootyfulll.

the only crit I'd have is that her fingers look a little awkward, but I know it's hard to draw them precisely from the size of the sketchbooks you have, etc, etc. so that's just a nitpicky thing.

other than that this is faaaaabulouuuus.

Why AREN'T I playing a harp in a meadow?! I really love the crisp, neatness of this. The figure really sticks out from the background. The main issue I have with this is the background gets ambiguous. If those are in fact, rolling green hills in the background, so make them so dark and separate, right now you have a clean line running, dividing the grass from the hills. I would also vary the length of the grass blades as well. Make them smaller as you go back, right now everything sort of looks flat up against the picture plane. Either or, I think this is your best piece yet Kirhanna, keep up the good work!
