CoooL! I think maybe you should have tinted it green and submitted it as a thirst quenching Sprite! ;) :D Great pic though!

Hehe..I definitely recognized water and ice :D I know what you mean by saying that doing this was refreshing for you. It's so difficult to make faces recognizable but drawing accessories, clothes, still life is sooooooo relaxing because you don't have to be constantly "aware" of what you're drawing.

Good luck with the contest! This is a brilliant entry. :highfive:

Hey I thought it was a photo. I think it is great and very refreshing looking. It made me thirsty.

Take Care

Wow! Very Beautiful! :wow:

I hate to critique people because I'm not very experienced, but the only thing in this picture that kind of threw me off was the water pouring at the right -- because I can't see what it's pouring from. (It looks realistic, just took me a second to understand it-- I thought it was a stick or straw or something rigid and straight.)

Other than that, bravo on the ice! Looks very clear and the water dripping off of it is a nice touch. Looks like a challenge :clap:
