How exquiste is this lady Shanina, she is so delicate, dainty and refined, those lips and eyes so rare and precious.
Take a big bow GENIUS, your work is meticulous and so very pleasing to the eye, oh by the way I love the colours , the flowers and the papillon.
Is she feeling slightly melancholy?

Shanina, your portfolio is a colorful and wonderful place to be and thanks for commenting on my wacko 70’s shot which led me back here. Your work is sexy, fun and passionate and I’m glad I came back after Forest Godess scared me off last time… how’s she doin’ by the way?
Madam Butterfly just totally rocks, and it’s gotten me over my pink on red phobea… you managed to make that work, even throwing a bit of green into the mix. I am in awe!
allisonberryart
eye-catching and colorful… an extremely professional and polished look… excellent :-)
Eyal Nahmias
A spectacular image, that grabs the viewer attention for long time. Excellent tonal range and contrast between the the pale skin and the petals. Outstanding rendering of light and shadows to create a very striking image. The details in the eyes and flowers are so life like that it is hard to believe it’s not a photograph. Without any question it is an immediate favorite for me.
