Devatashka Cave

First off, I would like to say that this was an extremely beautiful drawing, and it is quite cool to know the fact that there is a place like this in the world! It's is very interesting to see an illustration of an actual place so beautifully crafted in this style, it kinda makes me believe it is an actual photograph at first.

As for the techniques used itself, I'll go over the details of each.

The vision I see is beauty, there is not much going on besides that. I feel like I'm am gazing at beauty itself in a secluded location out of human reach, which is a very nice feeling for a cave. You manage to capture light and darkness very well, which adds into the effect of isolation.

The originality isn't that great as it can be. Originality mainly focuses on the style and the concept. Is it a new idea? Is it a rare and/or has good technique? While I'll give that the style is very well done, but I see some styles like this used in many illustrations of landscapes. The idea of a cave drawing is not very unique in the world of drawing, as it is a beautiful idea all together. Just google search "cave illustrations" and you can find some pictures that have some same similarities to this one. But when it comes down to it, the way you draw in the parts is very unique, using a variety of definable strokes to show the details. But my favourite part about this is the colours you used, I'll talk more about them in technique.

As for technique, you can probably guess I personally am a fan of it, as are many other people as you can read from the comments. I mean let's face it, the only people that would dislike this are the people who purposefully go around the internet, to bash everything they see and dislike it because they hate their life (I don't understand their mentality -_-). As per your technique, it is visually flawless. I can't say anything good about it because I would have to say everything that can be good about it. Something I would like to point out though about your drawing skills, are your perception of depth, as when you look in the back of the drawing, you can see fog and more smaller details that add into the epicness of the drawing. My favourite part as I have mentioned, is the colours, as they have captivated me upon viewing. Like the grass which was done beautifully, it makes it feel like there is light coming in from places we can't see from, but feel where they are, as the way you used the colours works in the favour of the drawing. The cherry on top however is the water/watefall, just seeing that glowing just inspired me with the great amount of beauty it portrays.

And for the impact it had on me, I'd say it made me pretty impacted to give a full critique on this amazing drawing. I won't say it made me completely impacted for two reasons, one is because I have seen some pictures using this same art style before, and the second is because of that border along the top and bottom, the signature isn't that distracting, but the border kinda offsets the whole thing.

Overall, this artwork would be appealing to many, as you convey a deep amount of detail with many small strokes which adds to the somewhat imposing realism of the drawing. Beauty and grandness is the main idea of this drawing, which I take in very well. The only thing I would change would be the border, I would like better if it was removed, or maybe given an Artistic detail like an old Victorian Painting Frame, or something like of the sort. It just kinda feels like "Oh I did a good job, but I got this black and white border... nawh, I did good, I'll just leave that there." It's more or less just a thought that maybe you could add a bit more detail there possibly?

On a side note... I didn't mention something because I couldn't think of anything to change it into that would work better. It's that little yellow area on the top rightish area of the painting. I feel like the colour doesn't really work there with the light yellowish greenish hues. I don't know why it just feels off, maybe if it was darker, a bit more green, or a bit more brown, it would feel less off. Maybe it's because it's such a bright area in the middle of a dark area, I'm not quite sure.

Great job on the drawing ^^
I'd give it a full 64 giraffes out of 83 flamingos.
