| 11 Jul 2005 |  Anya ´broom rider´ Kholodova |  Loading...Wow, it's amazing what you can do with an old school-era landscape! I wish mine early experiments were good for something like this, but they are not, lol  I love the unicorn, and the whole atmosphere of old celtic magic.  Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you! One reason for this is that I can't stand to discard an old painting, no matter how bad...so I often end up painting over all or part of them -- sometimes several times!" | |
| 13 Jul 2005 |  Jennifer Alice Peters | Loading... This does remind me of the last unicorn. I especially like the background, it has a magical look to it, as though the trees and plants are glowing with life. It has sort of an alice in wonderland feel in that respect. Composition wise it would be nice to see some plants or something along the sides to better frame the picture, I'm not sure what it is but something makes my eye wander outwards. Perhaps that was your intent though, anyway very good work overall, the unicorn is well sculpted. Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you!
I agree that composition is practially non-existent here. This is actually the fourth time or so that I've painted over this particular canvas, so it's become a sort of experimental "what can I do with it this time?" piece (though I guess that's no excuse for a bad layout).  " | |

| 29 Aug 2005 |  Howard faria | Loading... Fascinating! Quite radical...but why not? Inspiring actually^^ Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you! This is quite different than my usual style, but was a lot of fun. " | |
| 23 May 2006 |  Christina L. DeVillier | Loading... I kind of dislike the whole "unicorn in a grove in the forest" thing on principle, but the REALLY REALLY REALLY AWESOME trees in this make up for it! And the colors are great too. *swirly swirly swirly...eyes doing the funky spiral thing...goes and sticks head in cup of peppermint tea. Refreshing, but not helpful* Anyway...WONDERFUL FOREST. And I like the expression on the unicorn's face... And that movie (unless you meen the book?) was pretty trippy, especially that butterfly. Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thanks very much. I'm glad you like it, despite the cliched theme. I was reminded more of the animation style of the movie than the descriptions of the book, but either way I still find it very Last Unicornish. " | |
| 20 Oct 2006 | Vicky A Beer | Loading... Love love love the style of this piece it's so vibrant and fun yet the unicorn looks so sad. You justa want to hug him and then dance about those funky trees.  Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you very much; I'm glad you like this one! " | |
| 6 Dec 2006 | Victor L. Castro | Loading... Hello again Sara, well I must say that I really like the trees, color, and foliage, in fact I would love to give this painting a 'thumbs up'! If it wasn't for your 'sick and macabre sense of humor'...I mean having that beautiful white horse impaled through it's head by some sort of object is just demented! P.E.T.A. is going to come looking for you... Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Heh, thanks Victor! PETA would probably be horrified by the contents of my studio, then. " | |
| 31 Mar 2008 |  Saskia H. Suurling | Loading... Beautiful artwork. The trees are a great idea and the unicorn is very cute. Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you very much. " | |
| 12 May 2009 |  Lilit Wampire Zeltsburg | Loading... That unicorn is the same as in another drawing!  He just keeps coming back, doesn’t he?  Well, keep it that way, I like it  Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Well, it’s a similar one anyway. Thanks for all of the comments. I don’t think I have the energy to answer every single one, but I appreciate that you took the time to look at and comment on so many of my artworks." | |
| 25 Jun 2009 |  Yoni Danziger | Loading... This is very beautiful I love the way you make your Unicorns! Sara Melissa Bean replies: "Thank you very much! I’m glad you enjoy them. " | |
