Mary Layton 2002-03-23 Beautiful This is lovely! I really like the background, and she's a beautiful REAL woman!   (Norma Peters) Thank you, Mary. ^_^ I thought it was important to show a woman as so many of us actually ARE. We see the sylph-like characters so often in fantasy art, with the more ample figure ignored. Vera Lucia Emerim 2002-03-23 I LOVED this one, Norma. Real women are not thin at all. Congratulations!   (Norma Peters) To Vera Lucia: Thank you. ^_^ I'm happy to have such positive feedback on this piece. Donna Bond 2002-03-26 Gorgeous! She is tres sexy! Thank you so much for recognizing that there is beauty in forms other than those on Fifth Avenue. May the Lord and Lady bless and inspire you!!   (Norma Peters) Donna, thank you. ^_^ This pic was a piece I truly felt inspired to do. It bothers me that the typical woman is pretty much ignored in fantasy art. I wanted to give her a voice and a face. Since I drew this picture, I've actually done a couple more along the same lines. Lina Hansson 2002-04-02 Fabulous! I have been longing to draw shapely women too but haven't gotten about to it. This is good stuff! :)   (Norma Peters) Thank you, Lina. ^_^ I've done a couple in this series, and thoroughly enjoyed working with larger women. ... ... 2002-05-13 Too often we forget that robust women are so beautiful! Thank you! :D   (Norma Peters) Thank YOU, Laura, and amen to that. I work with a woman who is far larger than the subject of this painting, and I'm always awed by her grace, style and flair. She has Presence. ^_^ Linus Douche 2002-09-18 comment Eh... just a thought. Only women have commented this pic, why is that?;)   (Norma Peters) WEll, Linus, I leave that to the viewer's imagination, but it's been my experience that men hate losing face before their peers. They tend to indulge in the pack mentality and would never admit that a woman was attractive unless she was near-perfect, lest they appear un-cool to other males. Alina Chimanovitch 2002-09-28 hear hear! As russians say, "There should be a lot of a good person."   (Norma Peters) Alina, the Russians know what they're talking about. ^_^ Vera Lucia Emerim 2003-11-30 Hi Norma I commented this image before but I have to do it again. The grace of her pose and expression of her face, the way she knows she is a real woman and not an idealized image. I can related to her. Btw I have to update my photo on my gallery's page.LOL Keep the good job !   (Norma Peters) Thanks for your visit - it's truly appreciated, and I so glad you like her. :) Post a Comment
