Ha. Monica, I have to say I'll be happy when this is off the front page because it creeps me out. You did a great job!

I didn't know what to think of this at first glance, it didn't interest me as I'm not a fan of this PP, but the more I look at it the more I can see why it did well, congrats on a well deserved and funny image!

Probably with a different and more complex background you could have won. The processing of the image is amazing. Congrats on the yellow.

This one is really interesting--I keep coming back to it. Great use of the liquify filter, and all around composition! Bumping to 8.

top1 for me. very artistic.

great idea and execution for this challenge.

Very DMC. This time the use of the various filters in your photo application have benefited the original image, not just smashed the picture into the realms of digital art as many did. Whilst this is indeed digital and it is art, it is believable AS a work of painted art with canvas and paint rather than an image converted to imitate it. The title, the lips, the elongated neck and the oddly shaped skull (needing scientific measurement) all add to the end result. The bust she is holding is a clever touch. Top Marks.

That's fun. Love the way you elongated her neck.

I like the distorted figure and the "painting" style on her and the statue. However, it doesn't work very well on the background. 7
