Forest Guardian

There is very little I can find wrong with this piece. The quality exceeds all originality expectations from the carving on the skin to the simply but precise weed hanging from her lips. Although the colors blend very well together to make this kind of surreal trick of the eye, I feel that there were some things that could have been finer tuned. While it is clear that the guardian is the focal point, I feel that the shrubbery at the shaft of the tree could have been more predominant and have a bit more solidity. Even if it remains as a blurred distance, it would still provide the coverage and better ground the idea that this is a forest dweller and that she is indeed one with the plants.

Other than that one, mild complaint I'm quite in love with this piece. I'm a profound nature lover and find that you capture the essence of a ethereal forest creature very well. Well done, always a pleasure to watch you.
