The colors are cheerful and the design elements (road, Emerald City, forest of snarky trees, the field of poppies and the ruby slippers) are easy to ID. What's not to love?
If I would critique it at all I'd say fine brush around the slippers with a contrasting color to make them pop.
It's painstaking, eye-crossing work to sit there and dab on a tiny outline with a brush the size of a flea's ear, but well worth it in the end.

I love that you've chosen one of my favorite fakie types as a canvas, too.

Will she have a rainbow somewhere when she's through?
Heh. Because I don't just want easy to ID, I want PERFECTION, but I'm not that good a painter.

Well, I don't like the house at all... and looking back at the pictures, i realize why nobody's commenting on that! Put 2 views of the same area instead of one of the chest. So I'll throw that in here now.

I think the suggestions about outlining the city will help me like that area more. Would you outline the shoes with a lighter green? I think black will work okay for the city but not so well for the shoes....
Hadn't planned to put in a rainbow, but mostly because I hadn't thought of it... maybe arching over the city?
