Thanks so much! I love reading comments like these
I really appreciate it when people are able to give good criticism and praise at the same time.
I agree with you in that it's not perfect, not by far. The lines are really rough, and my shading techniques have improved a lot since then; the picture is a little flat. But over a year later and I'm still pretty happy about it. I tried putting as much emotion into her expression as I could, so I'm glad that you were able to recognize it. Plus I'm a sucker for rainbows.
In the last few months I've been doing a lot to try and saturate my pictures with a lot of colors, and this was definitely one of the first steps towards that.
It was really interesting trying to incorporate the rainbow in her eyes like you mentioned.
Thanks again for the comment and favorite!
