Natalie Portman

Vision: Loved it. The radiating beauty of Natalie Portman is clear.

Originality: Unfortunately, digitally painting a celebrity is not quite original anymore. I loved the monochromatic scheme though.

Technique: Stunning. Magnificent, loved all the minature details, every piece of hair is drawn to near perfection, and the eyelashes were perfect. The little folds and creases in the lips were beautiful, and they look really...real.

Impact: Decent impact, but the reason I gave it a 3/5 is because it showed off her beauty, and her overwhelming aura, but that was created by Natalie Portman herself. This painting showed off her lovely facial features, but did not really DO anything else.

Her neck and the rest of her body is blurry, which greatly contrasts her detailed face. I'm not sure whether I love it, or I dislike it. Because I love how it's such an amazing contrast between the abstract and the detailed, but at the same time, I dislike it because it looks like her head is floating on top of a grey-ish blob...

The right side of the painting, or the left of Natalie Portman's hair, seemed to get a little too glossy, and that makes it not look as 3D. The creases in the palm seemed a little bit flat. Maybe darker lines can create more of a more distinct depth. Right now it's already great, but darker lines in some spots can really make it stand out. But overall, GREAT work.

It looks EXACTLY like her. Bravo <img src="e.deviantart.net/emoticons/s/s…" width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Smile)"/>
