I'm enjoying this very much. Very stunning scene. Love the light rays and purple background.

Wonderful all around!

Nice environment

You really do a great job creating desirable environments.

Kudos on your mastery of Painter 7... I just started using it tonight and all I can say is...what a bitch!

i love this kind of ambiance... that's really a great piece... i like your style...
keep it up

Indeed a beautiful scene. I like the subtle colours and the tranquillity it radiates. Great work, Jeffrey.

Wondeful! I particularly like your choice of color and composition. Beautiful work. +4

beautiful!... she's got a nice view there of those mountains -s-

Wow this is beautiful!

Wow, very nice. I love how much colour you were able to get into the background and still make it look unified. Great job.

damnit stylus, now youve done it...
this is amazing...
reminds me of your 'sanctuary' painting..
i like this type of atmospheric scenery..
the sky is truly fantastic specially the sun rays shining down thorugh the clouds..
i only have one crit, and maybe its just me, but i didnt notice the lake until i saw the detailed pic...somehow it didnt strike me as a body of water but more of just a regular concrete floor...perhaps is because of the rooftop angle you chose and the brick wall containing the water that threw me off...it looks to me as if the girl is at a very high place and im used to lakes being much lower. but maybe this is some sort of pool on a tower or something...also the ripples that the girl's foot is causing dont seem to be correct, i dont know...thats all though.
regardless, this is great work and you can tell that you worked hard on it..

good job buddy!

Beautiful all around. the two very imaginative herons add a very nice fantasy touch.

it's lovely!

So romantic! Really betifull scene !!

nice! I like the soft tones & water reflection.. Ill try out the new system and give it a +8!

Lovely work on the sky and mountains. It has a wonderful depth and surreal feeling to it. =)

Wow! This is amazing! The way you've done the light through the cloads is unbelievebly well done. And the girl somehow brings balance to the piece. Great, great job. Your the first artist that I'm giving 8+ too!

Very beautiful background work and lovely colouring, the foreground also gives the image a great sense of scale. Excellent work.

Oh my God, another beautiful creation from you ^___^ This is absolutely stunning! The amount of work and detail is just...wow Thanks so much for sharing!

This is really nice. I love the suggestion of detail in those mountains. Very nice work!!

*gasps* sooo beautiful. The cranes in the water, the ripples, the carvings in the rocks, the light breaking the clouds, the purple background of the distant mountains..... omg, puts me in a state of tranquility. the colors are gorgeous. <blank stare of awe>

Beautiful! Incredible, such nice work
The small version really keeps all of the details hidden. The detailed (original?) version is incredible! I love it!
+7(/7)

i agree with pixeled, the detailed version defintely shows off your hard earned skills even more...once again, this is a wonderful piece, Stylus.
keep it up.

lovely stuff

A very lovely painting -- it gives out a wonderful sense of tranquillity.
I would like to see some close-ups of the mountains, if possible!

romantic??? WTF??? anyways, I do love the m00d of it - cheerz man

Thanks everyone for your comments - I've added another close up view of the mountains for anyone who's interested.

What a stunner, +4, when will I be this good?

amazing! +6

Moutains and lighting is simply stunning. I agree with the earlier comment on the water - I didn't realise it was water either. Somehow it looks like it should be still, yet it's swirling around quite a lot, which kind of upsets the tranquility a little. But still a great piece. +5 (because I can't vote any higher yet!)

I love the background. The foreground is a little 'too' fantasy styled for my taste but it's painted very well, high standards here.

"+5"
did it talk enough???

Absolutely amazing!

wow this is rockin one i always dream to make light brust like that

Love the light rays...the girl sitting on the wall is also brilliant! +5

spectacular. the amount of work that went into this must've been intense...
Might benefit from increased contrast (make it "pop" more)
GREAT work though.

...and I LOVE the clouds.

hey jeff, haven't been on gfxartist in a while but im definately diggin this one! and all your others, ahah. anyways, keep up the good work.

Great detail and a well set mood, I like it.

I love this! Especially how you used the colours and light.
