Description Here it is my dear friends and watchers, here is the piece I have been working so long on.  This piece is a representation of a water spirit.  And in the early stages of doing this, I kept thinking of how this could relate to the Lady of the Lake, from the Legend of King Arthur.  And I thought this title would suit it well since both subjects are related to the water.  

This one proved to be a lot more of a challenge than previous ones, because I have had to do a full female body (which I never have done before) and I had to come up with the color schemes to make everything in the piece fit in.  The forest was of a challenge, because I have done them before in recent pieces, but I haven't had to do a view from below the heads of the trees before.  

This is just the start of my extension in the range of art that I will do.  Please do comment, I love to hear feedback always!

This is amazing! In real life is it the size of a full sheet of paper?

I honestly think this may be one of your best pieces yet. The level of detail is just astonishing from the lady to even the blades of grass.

Thanks! ^^ It means a lot that you think so!

I am still trying to get better with doing the forest, to me it is good but I know there are things that could improve. And for the water spirit lady, it took some good patience trying to get the pose and body structure down. I haven't had much practice with that, but I can say I am improving in it.

The practice is certainly starting to pay off. I'd certainly say it's good with the level of detail you've drawn. I can even see the contours of the trees.

Thanks!  The background was one of the harder challenges to do.

the lady's neck looks a tad bit elongated and her chest area is a bit odd looking, but other than that it looks fine proportion wise

I agree with what you say, thanks for pointing it out.  This is my first time actually doing something like this, but I say I got off to a good start at least.
