the hair reminds me of botecelli's venus's hair

love the robes

but most of all the background is really making me happy

nice love

But don't you think the bg could be better? Seriously I'm not in love with it. Anyone with any suggestions please don't hesitate to offer them. (specially that green pickle-thingy. don't know what I was thinking)

This is really cool! Love the sweeping flow of the girl and her expression!!! I'm not sure how it would look, but you could try bringing thin green sweeping lines from the top of the green pickle-thingy up to meet the thin green lines by the shoulder and maybe pull some of the orange-brown color from that area down into the green a little and then maybe break the solid of the blue a little. Not sure how though? Munch's backrounds seem to have alot going on in them and didn't have alot of solid areas If it doesn't work I'd leave it the way it is. Definitely has a modern day Munch feel to it :~)

Thankyou for the advice, and I don't take advice negitivley like some people. I like this drawing but were is her other arm? :)

hmm, compared to the bg the lower part of her dress looks a bit plain. maybe putting more of the little decoration there would help? (some pattern perhaps)
