Is this too weird for a portfolio? Thoughts?

@PenAndrew Hey there! I've got some ideas going with these characters. I just need to decide if I want to go a Picture book or a comic. I can really get 'into' a comic story but not sure an audience would be there for these creatures. So I'll keep plugging away.
Cheers

@KatrinaF nice work! I love how open you are to feedback and making it work! It's lookin good!

Still plugging away at this... WIP

I love your dreamy style @KatrinaF. I've spent so many years having to create everything in such a technical form in various graphic jobs I would love to be able to imagine something as lovely as this. This is unique so I think would make a great portfolio.
-
@KatrinaF This is a really lovely style that you are evolving.

I feel like this is SO CLOSE to being done. Does it feel more like a 'story' now? Any other thoughts? suggestions? Comments? @Lee-White

@KatrinaF I love what you’ve done to this. It looks a little more like a fairytale moment than just a random girl now. I think it’s reading much more clearly. I like her hair better too, and the perspective.

Thank you Pamela! I love that you think it looks like a fairytale! It's sort of what I was going for. 
I'm glad you like the hair - It does look a bit more clear and 'regal' which I was going for. Thanks again for the comment. -
It was wonderful to see the evolution of this! Your most recent piece is much clearer than what you started with and it's interesting how your color palette changed as well, very beautiful work

Showed this to my sister and she recommend to add a little 'blooming' creature in the background to help drive home the idea that these flutter-shrimp and tree pod/cocoons are linked. I think it helps and draws the eye more around the image. The sparkles match the ones in the foreground too. I'm pretty happy with this. Thanks everyone who commented. !
Cheers
Katrina.I'll have a 60 second time lapse vid on my Instagram if you wanna watch it.

@KatrinaF I adore it!

@Kristen-Lango Thank you Kristen! I changed the color of her dress to lessen the attention on her rather than the pods. The original image colors were very bright but with changing the story I wanted it to be night and the creatures 'blooming' (emerging) from the pods. I hope it didn't turn out too dark. If I want to print these I think I'll be doing a bit of value adjustments.
