Why such a small resolution? We need to see the details of it...

Most beautiful. Such graceful lines and fluidity to this piece. I love how you've used the colours together. The while is ghostly and haunting yet very bold and immediate, while the blue wall and wooden headboard give a romantic, almost nostalgic feel to the piece. Love it

i like how the focal point (shoulders and head) is pretty much the only thing that's really sharp. i think it's beautiful how the rest somehow fades into the background. makes you really watch out for the little details, and squint your eyes...

i can see where other people are linking famous artists too, but to mee this look more like Gerhard Richter's Hyper Realist works, you shold check out his "Nude Descending a Staircase"

great work

My favourite type of painting! This looks... amazing! I have a bad habit of scoffing at most paintings in many galleries/exhibitions saying that a child could do better, but this could actually deserve a place in my opinion.
The foot does appear a little odd, but it is still beautiful!
I love your style, unknown artist.. you deserve to be known.

A beautiful subtlety of colour and tone. The focus is done really well and it's just a lovely picture in general.

Very nice work, it's kinda hard to distinguish her hand from her foot though.

Wonderful! I love your use of brushstokes to create the smooth texture of her skin compared to that of her nightgown and the wall. The highlights, used subtly, work well to present the idea of early morning light. It is amazing the way parts of the painting blur together, for example the nightgown and the bedding. It looks to me as though this just enhances the hazy feeling of first waking up and stretching. The composition is lovely and my eyes are continuously drawn back to her shoulders and her illuminated nightgown that works so well to bring depth into the painting. It's truely beautiful!

Beautiful composition and color. The hand ont he foot looks a touch unnatural. Particularly, the foot looks a bit disembodied and the transition between the foot and the hand is a bit too indistinct. Some hint of leg under the dress to connect the foot would be better. From the foot up, the piece is nearly flawless. Well done!

i dont quite know where the bed ends and the bedframe begins, but i think that that bluriness, or softness adds to the feeling of someone who is just waking up. i love how you added a bit of the background color blue into her hair and gown. her gown looks like it's glowing. when i first saw this, it reminded me of sargent's paintings. it's beautiful.

I love the composition of this painting and the colours are so realistic. The way everything seems a bit blurry brings out the focussed shoulders even better, what seems to add a strenght and frailty at the same time. You have a very good eye for this.
