I'm not sure what inspired this, but it would be interesting to know. Almost reminds me of Up, if you've seen that.
Anyway. I absolutely love the way you shaded the rocks. So much detail was put into each one that this could even be mistaken for a photograph. My only problems with this painting are very simple and opinionated, so bare with me please:
1. What are those black dots on the left side of the mouth of the cave? Bugs? Dust? For me, they are a bit distracting, but maybe that was where you wanted the focal point to be? I'm not sure.
2. The glowing crystals. Beautiful, and very nice touch. The only thing is, their reflection off of the rocks around them looks more like frost then glow. Not sure if that was intentional... But it might be better to make the glow a bit more transparent.
3. Is the cave you were talking about supposed to be the giant crack in the mountain up ahead? It's difficult to tell that it's a cave, although the angle we are looking at it would suggest that it should be no different than you made it. Maybe make it just a tinsy bit darker.
Otherwise, this is just a gorgeous painting. And on an off note, I'd like to mention that I really admire that an artist with your talent is still looking for feedback. I know many great artists let their talent get to their head, and completely ignore the fact that while they are awesome, there is always a way to be better. Props to you~
The only thing critical I can say is that the caves in the distance aren't very convincing to me. they just kinda look like dots. Perhaps if there were a ledge or ledges and more nooks and crannies involved I might be more convinced.
Still it's a very interesting concept and I love the perspective. The sky is very pretty but I also might suggest adding in a bird or two in the background to better get that profound feel of height and immensity.
