Disidi is meant to be an avatar of peacefulness, mindfulness, inner strength, and good feelings. Sometimes it's easy to forget that since I'm naturally much more morose than what I wish I was like, so it's nice to do proper happy/relaxed Disidi art rather than solemn or weary Disidi art.
"Wow" is more or less all I've got here. Nice detailing, lively colors that blend super smooth. Just wow.
The work is amazing: the expression, background and colors express relaxation and tranquility perfectly. It's incredible o:
A stunning, yet tranquil piece through and through. The cool-to-warm lighting transition on Disidi is really eyecatching, and brings out her expression that much more. I especially enjoyed the process video, the music really compliments the thought behind it. "Let your leaves fall and return", and revisiting this painting many times throughout the year for a new perspective. Great stuff!
Check out that warm, bright glow contrasting those soft, cool shadows. It's interesting to know the themes your character is supposed to represent. I really like this rendition — it seems fairly suiting.
