Starting off, this is a superb and phenomenal piece of artwork. From the shimmer of the light to the strands of hair on her mane, it give off a presence powerful enough to earn an insta-click from the preview image.I believe the things that are most well done here are the approach in style and the lighting effects on the accessories and surroundings you've set in place. The conceptual and rough expressionistic quality in the graphic nature of the foliage in the moss and plant life in contrast with the more refined and exact qualities executed on the character make for an intirguing relationship in the stylistic quality of this piece. There are areas that are quick and implied and ares that are refined to exact details, which gives it a relaxed feel to the piece by not stressing over every detail to the grains of dust.The lighting, if I'm too assume is coming from a swarm of lightning bugs, may be a tad too bright in my opinion. The mood here is almost a "dusk" kind of setting. With the deep black/blue of the background, I feel its either supposed to be night or its just very dark in there. I find Zecora's character very intriguing, and maybe toning down on the light and emphasizing the shadow across her features could have accentuated that, building on the mystery of the setting and what she's doing there.I already praised your style, but I feel something else to add is the painterly quality of the layering. Its almost clearly visible here to see your process in your production. I get a very back-to-front feel from this and it also adds to the illusion of depth in play. Something I think may have gotten a bit flubbled in the execution however may be that the little grass blotches accidentally overlap some of the more foreground blades of grass. Also, there is a brown spot behind her back left hoof that is giving me a vertical reading that is counteracting the grass around it. I'm not sure what's going on there.But in totality, you did do an incredibly fantastic job on this piece and it deserves as much love and limelight as it can get. You've got mine and easily a new watcher to add to the list.
