The colour is there, just a little light. I like what you have done with it, the light blue is a nice hue, although the whole image could use a bit more contrast. Also, catching the top of the head with a little room to spare would give it a more complete look, and also keep it G rated for the rest of us. Is that possible? :-)
I hold it true that thoughts are things; They're endowed with bodies, breath and wings:
And that we send them forth to fill the world with good results, or ill.
That which we call our secret thought speeds forth to earth's remotest spot, leaving it's blessings or it's woes like tracks behind it as it goes.
We build our future, thought by thought for good or for ill, yet know it not.
Yet so the universe was wrought .
Thought is another name for fate.
Choose then thy destiny and wait, for Love brings Love and Hate brings Hate. - Henry Van Dyke.
Good job, Maria ;-)
