Artist's Comments
Joan of Arc (6-Jan 1412 30 May 1431) is a national heroine of France and a Catholic saint. She is a quite tragic and romantic character.
A peasant girl born in eastern France, she led the French army to several important victories during the Hundred Years' War, claiming divine guidance. She was captured by the Burgundians, sold to the English, tried by an ecclesiastical court, and burned at the stake when she was nineteen years old. Comments
Yet again, very beautifull painting. Love the different elements, the colour and the ink drawing around it.

Critiques
I think your composition is great, the way you twisted the smoke upwards is fantastic, the only thing is that I would have liked to see the figure of Joan herself bigger, but i suppose that is just personal preference, perhaps you were making her small deliberately to convey how young and insignificant she was meant to be, or how all the odds are against her.
Her halo is a great touch, though i am curious as to why you coloured that and her hair but not her face-i'm not sure why that is grey.
I find the face to be very angular, and could flow better, but of course if this was on purpose then it is my taste, and ignore me (=.
