Egyptian Queen Homage

Egyptian spiced cheesecake! Good choice.

I also love Koufay.... this is amazing!

I don't even know where to begin.  She's a vision from head to toe.  The "spotlight" he put on her really brings all the gorgeous detail to life.  Simply stunning.

Frazetta did his Queen and now this beuaty from Koufay. You lucky man you! The fabric and color and lighting are stunning! Being a foot guy I stopped by to visit lots of times. 9/8 is my birthday and I thank you! 

gorgeous work. it's hard to pay tribute/homage to Frazetta on anything let alone one of his most famous works, but this suceeds in it's mission without being a recreation/copy of the original work. must be so much better in person but it looks plenty great here. congrats!

Wowiie!  Gorgeous. 

Lovely just lovely and those bedroom eyes like she's looking right through the viewer,congrats !

Bedroom Eyes is what I call this piece in my head now!

What a striking piece! Even from the photo, you can see how Koufay played with light and texture to create that “luminous” quality you mentioned, especially on the figure’s skin and the metallic accents in her attire. The blue and gold palette really underscores the Egyptian theme, but also gives the painting that rich, luxurious feel. The draping fabric, in particular, looks almost tangible, like you could reach out and run your fingers along the embroidered patterns and actually feel the texture! The gold jewelry, headpiece, and those delicate details on her sandals, or the metallic 'straps' going up her lower legs that are usually attached to sandals, really highlight the opulence.

Commissioning a piece like this can be a fun departure from the usual “just let the artist run with it” approach. I have to assume that sometimes at least, those extra details and back and forth conversations with the rep or artist result in exactly the mood and setting you’re after. It sure seems as if Koufay poured all his heart and skill into this commission. The image may not capture all the subtleties of the brushwork and sheen, but you can tell it’s a painting that would be even more breathtaking in person. Congratulations, Mikail, it is truly stunning!

Masterpiece!

Koufay is an excellent painter and this is quite the piece!

Some kind examples woman, yes Gennadiy’s down now
She don't understand what’s Koufay
She thinks it's a crime now
She look like Egyptian queen, she drivin' feet crazy
Come on like a Voodoo scene, Frazetta cheesecake please

Me loves me Frazetta
Gennaidy love fever
Gennaidy love fever
Oh Frazetta

congrats M.L. this is a stunning beauty. Getting a Koufay is on my bucket list. the colors are so vibrant it is almost A photograph. I love the theme of the piece.

Such an incredibly beautiful piece of art. Congratulaions on this! I love how he incoporates your thoughts and ideas in the painting, and then he goes beyond what you would expect. Just, WOW!

Beautiful and eye catching, the design on the cloth and the column and stairs have details that need to be enjoyed as well. Fantastic piece! 

Love this artist's work.I have a couple of his pieces myself. Stunning.

I love Oreo Cheesecake, but this looks pretty good to me. It's a gorgeous piece! I'm glad it was a good experience. 

Breathtaking! What a beautiful painting of an Egyptian Queen! I can see why you'd reference Frazetta, but this painting is really something different. Koufay Queen is gorgeously rendered but less sultry than Frazetta's. I love Koufay's use of color here. The royal blue and gold  accents really deperate nicely from the Queen's flesh. I'm blown away by how tactile the cloth of herr robes are, they look like you could almost touch them. The golden jewelry is beautifully painted and almost looke like it's real. Fantastic painting that I'm sure will look great on your wall!

Lol praise Kier indeed! The subject and execution is outstanding! The end result is photo realistic and looks like a piece you would see in a museum. Wow.

Downside of being friends with you and seeing commissions as they come in is then seeing them on CAF and thinking I've already commented. Lemme repeat myself then...STUNNING.

Gorgeous!  Her and the art :)  Must be that much more of a stunner in person, M, congrats!

Magnificent! 

Wow!!! She looks alive! Amazing!!!!!

I think anyone in their right mind would want a slice of this cheesecake, yewow!!!!

....wow.... Loving the colors and the stonewrok is amazing. Good for you!
