This portrait is full of softness and has a magical atmosphere, though it's not a fantastic picture, it has the tone that most fantastic deviations hasn't.

Concerning the face features, your portrait captures the mood of the photo, and the skin's colours and shadows are smooth and natural. Your picture hasn't so much light contrast as the photography, but it gives a better balance tone to the skin and contributes to create that delicate and atractive air of the image.

The anaomical aspects of the face are very well achieved because of your great work with shadows and lights. Even though, I prefer the hand - its perspective is simply perfect!

The only problem I see is on the glass: the ellipses are not enough remarked and regular, so it hasn't the aspect of a real glass. If your intention was make a 'watery' glass (similar to the bubbles), it's well as it is; but if you wanted a more reallistic glass I think it could be better.

Even that, your illustration is beautiful and impactating. All the different elements (her face, the colours and lights, the floating hair, the bubbles, the lovely goldfish...) create an interesting illustration. I'm sure your friend will be very happy and proud of this magnificent portrait!

This is utterly amazing.

The painting, the technique, it's amazing. You've captured her features beautifully, and the whole thing is very skillfully done.... however, her face seems to be just a bit narrower than was in the original photo, and the glass she's holding looks a bit warped - unless that was intentional heheh.

The hands could be slightly better-defined though - the joints and little wrinkles, and the fingernails.

The water droplets that are flying through the air are pretty good too, and the goldfish is very nice XD

Where vision is concerned, I guess that's where it loses some points, though the idea is pretty interesting - a goldfish in a cup.

Overall, great.
