Artist's Comments
This is, hopefully, the cover of the printed version of The Phoenix Requiem volume 1.
Hence the big empty space at the top, which is where the words are to go  I have no idea how many hours it took. Lost count. Big thanks to all the people who gave me feedback! Graphic Novel is here: [link] Comments
 I love her eyes so much! Very nice work, and the spirit hands are both creepy and beautiful.

I know it's a huge question that would burden you allot but, would you consider signing the volume to your customers? :3 I always love my books signed when I am familiar with the artist <3 -- Open for Commissions  Read My Manga Story: Ninth Phase  Damn, this is magnificent Oo
Must be my favorite illustration from you, I guess... But it's a close one withe the younger Petria's painting xD -- icon by =Xeno-striker  Simply Stunning~
 It's nice to see the final version of this! I love the shading on Jonas' coat... well, I love the shading on the entire piece. But Jonas' coat has nice folds :>
-- 98% of Deviants don't know the difference between "your" and "you're." If you're one of the 2% that wants to punch 'em, put this in your signature.  Absolutely stunning, I don't know how else to put it. Your style becomes more beautiful with each picture. It's been amazing watching your technique grow since Inverloch
-- "You might as well say; he breathes when he sleeps just as he sleeps when he breathes." -Alice in Wonderland  It looks beautiful! I just love the colors you used.
-- Hey look, a signature! |

Critiques
This is an amazing work! The setting and postures of the characters fit together perfectly for a novel/book cover.
Her expression is very gripping as well.
If I do have crits though~ This composition seems to be of the more mysterious type, and makes the audience wonder who the man is, what are those spirits grabbing around him, what is the woman thinking, what relationship does she have with the man, etc. But it seems to me that for this kind of setting, the colors throughout the picture are too vibrant. The more intense colors might be used on the man and the woman's face, but then the building in the background and her fur jacket might be greyed down and shaded so that there is less contrast to catch the eye. Then there is a more mysterious and somewhat creepy outlook to match the "story" that onlookers think of.
I don't draw people well, so the colors and shading are my only critique. Other than those tiny things, this entire painting is incredibly well done!!
