This is soo awesome! I really like the texture of the leaves, the colour of the hair contrasting against the background, the lovely pose with the fingers intertwined, and the gorgeous (and gorgeously rendered by you) eye makeup/colour. The bodysuit look is really growing on me and I miss seeing Ivy in the Birds of Prey comic. I also like the vines creeping and curling in her face which creates this impression that she's really one with nature and it's taking over her. another thing i liked about her new 52 reboot was her ability to spawn large thick vines from her back (if i understood correctly from the comic) which made her like this plant monster. From your gallery, you obviously do well with every character you attempt but I really like your Wonder Woman art and female villain art. I wonder if you've done a Cheetah (or any of WW's non-godly villains in the new 52 like Giganta or Circe) piece because I couldn't find one.

Back to your art, I must also appreciate the way that the arms are positioned away from the body to create this negative space through which we can see the background behind, to really give that sense of dimension and Ivy looks like she's popping off the page. Her eyes look vacant but in a good way (if that was intentional) like she's almost consumed by her obsession with plants and maddened by it and would go to any lengths to protect them.

The bodysuit look still looks incredibly sexy but with a more conservative edge than her previous looks where she'd be covered by nothing but a leaf or two over her privates; so I do like this suit. She looks badass and more likely to be taken seriously as a villainous force. It makes me so happy to see such great fanart of one of my favourite villains who are overlooked by most artists in favour of the more commonly used Joker, Catwoman and the like.
