beautiful - no critiques

Great mate, love the reflection in the water

I was once told that 'true love can span any distance' then I was told that 'distance makes the heart grow fonder.. for someone else'

Thank you.

Wow. That was quick. I barely got a chance to view it myself before you already commented.
Thanks for the comment and for the fav.

Beautiful work! I think the palette is definitely much more unified than in some of your previous work. The colors seem to fit together well. The light on the fairy's skin is beautiful! I'd like to see a little more light in the wings, perhaps - just because I always think of fairies as having sparkling, bright wings - but that's just a personal preference. It's a lovely painting!

About works coming out blurrier online than on your computer - I have that problem, too. Sometimes I have to re-upload a picture four or five times before the image comes out clear. It's not a problem so much when I upload it over a cable modem; but with dial-up it is often blurry. A bit of interference, maybe, in the communication? I don't know.

The water came out beautifully! It's such a challenge to paint, at least in my experience. You did a great job with it!

and here i was surprised to find such a beautiful work just while browsing, rather than having it pointed it out either as a DD or as a favorite on someone else's favorites - i guess some of us are just lucky sometimes

Thank you again. What a sweet thing to say. You made my night, morning, whatever it is here now.

As always, your comments are so appreciated. Thank you.
And I agree about the wings. They probably should be more glistening and bright.
I also think you have hit the nail on the head on the blurriness. I have a dial-up connection, a very, very slow dial-up connection. (The phone lines out here are so old and slow that even with a 56k modem the lines won't let me connect at more than 28k. DSL and cable connections aren't even available. That's what I get for living out in the swamp with the swamp fairies.)
The water was difficult for me, and I worked hard at getting it at least passable, so I'm glad that you think it came out okay. Thanks.
