Yeah, I'm really getting lazy now. Drawing heads, without even a neck or body. Poor floating heads.
The bad news is we don't have any control.
The good news is we can't make any mistakes.

Woah. Really good work on the eye. :)

I've actually never seen someone put art work up so I have a couple questions.

One. Did you draw this by hand?
Two. Did you color it by hand or use a computer program of some sort?
Three. If you drew it by hand how do you upload it to a computer?

But really good job. :)

Heyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy :)

I think's it's a lovely floating head XD

Ummm... Really stated looking it over all I can see that I would change is that there's no definition in her chin and her neck. I would suggest just darkening that up a little.

Other than that, it's shmaweshome. I adore her green hair, the way you colored in her eye, the use of lighting is amazing, and all that good stuff :)

Woo, more art!

I have to say right now that this is really good. I can't find anything to critique really, sorry! I can see you have been practicing.

What I like most:
-The way you painted the hair. It looks touchable and soft. Plus green is a fun color!
-The arc of the nose, it looks natural.
-The color of the eye.

Can't wait for more!

That is just so awesome!

I love the texturing and strokes in the hair. It's the first thing I noticed and I loved it. :D
Nitpick: The blush on the left is pink-er than the right one. Normally, I wouldn't mind it, but in this, I think it would look better if you did make it almost the same shade.
The eye-to-nose line is a little weird for me. Maybe add subtle shadows.

Great work!

The right eye is completely gone! The left eye is so black and crisp that the right should have at least a little showing. Other than that, great!
The way you fade out the top and bottom is amazing. Normally, that sort of thing would annoy me, but I find that you implied a chin very well with what little skin-color is down there.

I was really intrigued by the title, and I'm pleasantly surprised. I really liked the green hair, because it shows that not everything is always natural. I kind of liked how there was no neck and body, because that gave you an option to focus more on the facial features. Good job!

WOW, certainly the best thing I've seen from you so far. I love how you have just forgotten everything else. It really concentrates the eye to the figure. My only issues, clean up the nose line, it's thicker on one part and mayebe add some shadow above the eye and between the brow, that area is rather flat.
Amazing!

edit: after reading the other comments, i noticed the missing eye. Personally it doesn't bother me and if i where you i would keep it the way it is.

I was a little iffy on this one. I didn't so much like the fact that it was a severed head. I think it would have been better with a body. On the other hand I really loved the eye that showed. It was amazing with the blue and the purple together. Keep drawing.

Most people cover there eyes this day. I really like this and I love the hair on the picture. I can't say anything about the picture that is not right because I am not an art critique. I love it, though.

So, not only is the right eye missing, its extremely small. There has to be some of it showing at least, noticing how big the other eye is. Also, the floating head has no chin either. I mean, sure, it is floating, but the chin is the awesomest part of a head. :P Overall, this is pretty good. Keep drawing.
