Very stylish

Floor has an odd perspective. I really like how you painted the girl, chair, and reflection. I'd still like to see more obvious brush-work, though.

Tom, great job with this challenge! I like the way you took the lady out of the old image and created a new background for her. I do have to agree with Doug though about the perspective for the floor.

Thumbs up on the new surroundings, Tom. Like the brush effects, too.

I guess Mary didn't know perpective drawing.
LOL
Right Doug.
The floor boards probably should have angled just a bit to give an impression of perspective...but since the view is sorta straight on I just left it straight.

Tom,
I think you brought a unique style to this image. I agree with the others in your use of bold colors and I even like the floor. Really cool work.
