First of all I'd like to put that this picture is simply divine. It looks beautiful. The colors are vivid, the faeries are realistic, and you balance creativity and realism splendidly. I can't believe you were able to do something so brilliant and beautiful. I'm insanely jealous.Now for the scoring.Vision: You had such a clear vision. You must have known exactly what you wanted when you began or you could not have done this so expertly. The faeries are strategically placed, in my humble opinion, to drag your eyes away from the faerie on his hand to look at all the other things you so painstakingly detailed in and colored. The lighting, some in colours not generally seen, lights up his face yet there are enough shadows around the faeries that you can see their inherent glow. It must have taken some rather thoughtful planning. 5/5Originality: It seems people are scared to use faeries and humans together very much, more so when they're as realistic as yours are, because they don't want to be opened to public ridicule. While realistic humans and faeries, when separate, are common it's hard to find such a fantastic example of the two together. Having the man using the faerie has a model (or that's my take on it since he's painting) is actually very refreshing. He seems to comfortable with the faerie. She just sits on his hand and his expression... not quite bored, still slightly curious, but mostly just appraising. 4.5/5Technique: You did amazing with the majority of the sizing and proportions. The faeries are bigger than you usually see them but so much so that they seem awkward. The window seems a bit small but that only adds to the cramped look. The faerie's wings are beautifully coloured, shaped, and positioned. (I, personally, have trouble placing the wings. They're always too big and lopsided). And the texture of the wings, the plant, and your clothes really jumps at me. The only complaint I have for this is your feet. Your right foot's toes are far too long. At first I thought that was merely because it was pressed against the wall but I shook off my shoes and tried it myself and your toes still look too big. 4.5/5Impact: When I look at this, I see his face. His peaceful, level gaze staring at the faerie wondering how he he should draw her and her fellows. It's lovely, serene, and I just *love* it. I really do. The colors, shading, and textures just give this a very calm, relaxed but powerful impact. 5/5Over all, this is a very beautiful picture. It was perfectly done and I'm making a favourites folder just so I have somewhere to put this masterpiece. I loved this piece; please continue your inspiring work.Blessed be,Fae of the Cheshire Cat system
