Title: Timeless Beauty
Name: Michael Oswald
Country: USA
Software: Photoshop

Here's an image that I've been wanting to make for a while now. I believe my style to be a combination of contemporary digital art and traditional mediums, as well as, combined fashion styles and art movements. Here, all of those elemnts are rolled into one piece that I'm very happy with.
You can probably expect to see more work like this from me.

Wow, fantastic! I really love the skin tones you have used; warm and vibrant colours on the face becoming colder and marble-like as you go down towards the chest. Very nicely done indeed! The jewellery is also quite stunning.

Well done, 4 stars from me!

I like so much color palette but not her face, she's so rigid!
I think that you can improve using photo refereces!
This is my opinion, i hope to don't offend you!
4 stars for me

Extremally well done. I think her lips could be a little more soften, but it's a minor detail. 4 stars work.

Wow very cool! I love how this is done. At first I thought it was just another pretty girl, but then as I scrolled down and caught the statue I was very happily surprised. Very creative presentation and the blue background makes her pop out. Love it! Keep up the good work MichaelO!

Very nice, how long did this take you to complete?

I ususally take my time on these things over three days.

Nice, but the eyes need some tweaking, those make her look lifeless like a wax sculpture.
Great hair, look so real 4*

Oustanding! I love the concept of such a beauty being elevated to a pedestal-worthy work of art. The arch of her left eye-brow also shows her awareness that such "worship" should be viewed with a touch of cynacism. Bravo and 4* from me!

Great work, at first when the page loaded i could only see the top half, then the bottom half loaded and my mind was blown, great combo of skin and marbel.

To be honest with you, the whole looks good. However, it looks like fog is surrounding the subject, so she looks a bit blurry. If it is not your purpose, I would suggest you to use more depths of colors to bring her out more. Best Regard. Great job.
