That looks awesome!Kinda reminds me of David Bowie, no not the face you silly.. the colours and the atmosphere I like the brushes youve used to paint! What are they? Im using RobG's brushes, theyre splendid!

Thank you so much! I absolutely LOVE David Bowie, so it is such a nice compliment.
The background is one of the default brushes (like a watercolour brush) with the "Paint Daubs" filter from the filter gallery. For her hair i used one of 's brushes, and for her skin I used the same watercolour brush in the background plus an abuse of the smudge tol
i've never used RobG's brushes!

It's very pretty. I love the colors in the hair. However, it seems like the green around her eyes clashes with the green in the background a bit. If you slightly changed the shade of green around her eyes, or else added some of the darker green to the background, it would probably tie it together even more.

The skin tone is really well done and the highlight on the lip is nice. Again, very pretty
