The Angel and The Devil

Original Wallpaper

Artist Comment


Just painted this for fun... and i've just noticed i haven't submitted on this site in almost 2 years and i was wondering why i had difficulties figuring out how to submit something.

It first began as just a portrait of her and then i extended the canvas and added a background. the raven was a last minute addon.

this was painted entirely in Corel Painter X with my wacom intuos 3.

This is an amazing painting. From the girl's pose, to her expression, to the bird perched on her hand, to the serene scenery in the background, everything is perfect and professional. I love the soft painting style and the blue tones that add to the serenity of the scene. Full view is a must! And check out dadong's gallery for more wonderful paintings!

    Beautiful painting. It's all the better because it is an original idea of yours. It's so serene and inviting. I love everything from the beautiful winged girl holding the bird to the castles in the background. Fantastic work!

    This is beautiful & looks like it belongs to a sci-fi fantasy film. Everything about it is stunning; the composition, pose, the girl, the scenic background, the colouring, shading and soft painted texture. Simply everything is beautiful!

    Wonderful painting! I like how you paid so much attention to her anatomy; it's really realistic. I like how smooth everything looks, so professional.. Like Saikusa says, it has a scifi- touch, with the triple-tones of her hair, the stately structures behind her and the wings. I especially like the ruins behind the 'angel'; love how the light filters through the gate. The lighting must be really bright; it's so white! But then, it does bring immediate attention to the more detailed girl, and the bird, then lets the eye rove to the other elements.. Personally? I would like to know more about the story!

    Dadong you're aliiiiive! :D
    Wonderful painting, strokes have a wonderful creaminess. Very loose, yet precise. Love the attention to anatomy and structure. Love the composition. Love the way the girl stands out from the background while remaining part of it. Awesome.

    Gah, I'm so jealous of you :)
    This is gorgeous, I love the girl, but I also really like the tower/castle in the background.

    Great shading on this piece, and i really like your coloring. The monochrome bg is interesting and well drawn. It's a bit blurry (though obviously intented) and sketchy, but an amazing work anyway, so thumbs up and fav :D

    Wow you're good, definitely good, especially since you've drawn it for fun. Very realistic, and definitely a great piece of art. I would almost fav this... Actually I will.

    I love that style~ It's like watercolour .. watercolour is pretty. The background is beautiful, the mist effect fits the angel very well. Mysterious city she's watching over.
