Wow!! This is so much fun!! 8D And eerie!

I thought your Artist Comments were supposed to be a metaphor for the piece as a whole, but I decided to flip my laptop upside down anyway -- just for fun -- and I was so surprised by what I saw! This is such a cool idea, and you pulled this off incredibly well! I love the way you've incorporated the ENTIRE picture for this topsy-turvy effect -- not just the center figure. It's wonderful!

This is certainly something I don't see every day. Major points for creativity, and for being able to pull this off so well! It's amazing how you've created such a cheerful image (complete with soft, swirling lines) that can change so drastically just by turning the piece upside down. Suddenly, those beautiful wavy tresses of hair look dark and sinister. This certainly puts a new spin on "looking at a piece from different angles"...

On a more technical note, I'm quite fond of the two-toned look you have here. It compliments the drawing very well. Additionally, this is quite a unique canvas shape, and you made a beautiful choice in hue. The white-and-copper effect makes this piece seem even more surreal; like a mural. Or an ancient scroll. Or a shield. Or a Greek vase. Love it. What sort of medium is this, anyway? Is it white chalk on paper? What is your canvas made of?

If I could adjust anything about this piece, it wouldn't have to do with the artwork at all -- but the way you've uploaded this deviation. Because the stark contrast between the white and bronze creates such a wonderful effect, the rest of the white background tends to be distracting. If possible, it'd be wonderful if you opened this piece in Photoshop (or a similar program) and got rid of the white background. Upload the deviation again as a .GIF or .PNG file keeping the background transparent. I think it'd look lovely.

All in all, this is a fantastically creative and wonderful deviation. I'm so glad it caught my eye in #Thumbsshare, as it was quite a treat to stumble upon. Keep up the wonderful work!

And thank you so much for sharing.

What attracted me in this deviation is the leaf shaped canvas you decided to use for your artwork. I think it's a really original choice and it looks good in my opinion. I also like the fact you decided to negative drawing this image, as the image doesn't look empty and it's filled with all kind of shadings! As for the drawing itself, I find it interesting. I like the way you drawn the hair as it's floating in the water, and I also love all the little details you've added to recreate the underwater feeling, drawing fishes and sea plants.
