i dont know if you find this useful info but ill post it anyhow.
List of objects in your painting that drew my attention in chronological order
beautiful dressed girl
mirrored girl
knife
ghost above mirrored girl
i didnt notice the other faces until you showed the closeups.
Love your work, you are very consistent in your style, which is a good thing. When i saw the plug on the frontpage, i immediately recognised it as a true “bergkvist”

absolutely amazing. as an advocate of having a perfectly calibrated monitor… as any digital artist should… i’d have to say it is a tad dark. you said you did darken it a bit to look better, however like the posting rules says… “CGTalk is a professional, moderated forum.” As such it should be assumed that professionals would calibrate their monitors so you shouldn’t bugger your art just to make it look good on a consumer monitor as opposed to the pro monitors. other then that i have no other critic. good work.

Stunning work!
If I were to point out anything I would say that her right thumb is bent a bit too much forward towards the viewer- also the blade seems to go “through” her hand - or rather the big “muscle thingy” that the thumb is attached to.
Just to find some minor stuff to bicker about. (wink)
I only mention this because perfectionists like to have such little things pointed out (at least I do)

Beautiful, as always.
I also see some improvement: I like the different really passionate and furious expressive faces of the phantoms in the mirror. Congratulations! <3 Most of you old characters tend to be more serene and/or melancholic to me. This kind of opens a new window. I think it brings a whole new level to your artwork.

Nice work, I alway enjoy your pieces.
On my monitor the image looks a little dark, I have calibrated it with adobe gamma.

Hi Linda, thats a very cool painting…it looks fine on my monitor …I know how it can be with a non-calibrated monitor, I used to have the same problem, just recently decided to buy a new one…A sony flatscren LCD…lots of people say flatscreens are bad for Graphics, but I absolutely love it and the colors come out fine…
Do you have a tutorial on your approach to fabric painting, or maybe an explanation, your fabrics look great.
Also, ( and have not read al the pages in this thread so forgive me if this has been asked already) do you sketch your paintings before hand and work from a scan or just draw directly in painter…
Thanks for any advice you can offer, I’m just trying out different styles and approaches, trying to find a method that works well for me…
great art, I really love your stuff:)

Great work Ms. Bergkvist… I haven’t read through this entire post, so any prior observations, redundant-regurgitated commentary… that I then painfully go on to re-iterate… I now solemnly apologise for.
In my defense, it’s admiring this caliber of artwork (for the length of time it takes my eyes to fall out), that causes it…
In regard to this particular gem from the ‘Bergkvist’ vault, I kind of fell back a few years, into the pages of ‘Gilman’s’, ‘The Yellow Wallpaper’. I’m not talking about the content, but more’… the feelings or emotions within that stories, modest girth… If you like… It’s subtleties.
I won’t speak for anyone else, as I’m a weirdo at the ‘best of’, but even as a picture that observers might usually detach themselves from, you’ve kind of got across that feeling of awkwardness and the sussurant trappings of madness… that may indeed leave a viewer (at the very least… a daft pillock like myself) feeling uncomfortably challenged.
In this way… you’ve developed a real ‘sensation’ piece.
At a time when people are debating, ‘digital art’ as ‘art’… What a cool thing to achieve.
“Vive La Bergkvist!” or alternatively “Long Live Linda!”
Respectfully.
