You didn't ask for critic but I hope you welcome it, don't get me wrong I really like your artwork. I like the drawing, expression, pose & even admire the direction of every stroke of these feathery things.. It all adds up to the painting & that just turned out awesome. Were it faltered for me was in the painting of the piece. I just think it may need a "paint this again meme" two years from now. As while it would have been an insta-fav for me, the painting held me back. Also the entry of dim rose to the painting would have added to the atmosphere of the painting (thats only my opinion or rather how I would do it if I had your painting skills).what I'm talikng about is more like this [link] & this [link] . Now I know that every artist have their vision so I'm only adding those to show painting & atmosphere. You already had the vision part covered in my opinion.Sorry for the long comment, I rarely comment but when I do it I always give it my best & hope its worth itoh & don't dare visit my galleryyou think you'd find good stuff after this long comment but you won't. Unlike you I still don't have enough courage to pursue my passion & actually learn painting... now I'm only an art admirer hoping that it will change.We are here in the DA community to help each other out so I hope you accept critiques & I hope you find mine useful & fair. Hope to hear from you soon.
