Description

Painted in school. I'll maybe work more on the details when I get home :)

EDIT: Tried finishing it up and fixing some issues. Also the colours were really muddy before on my computer screen at home, I hope it's the school one's fault........ :(

Ok.. hmmm. your line-drawings are awesome and i really like the style. Its a painting, not just flats and gradients, so that gives me more respect. With paintings, because we can see the brush strokes, sometimes things get emphasized unintentionally. I think thats might be what happened with the chest...? there is something odd about it--maybe just leave it flatter?

The other critic (critiquer?) also thought you added detail to the facial expression to the exclusion of the rest. I think part of it is a compositional issue: the highlights and details on the face bring us there first, then my eyes go to the chest and right arm.

But i think there needs to be something strong in the lower right of the drawing to balance. Maybe, make the background darker, and let the silhouette of the figure pop more. and add some shadow below the guitar...? Also I'd like to see as much detail on the hand--to emphasize the tension of holding the weight of the guitar. That would also add a little more balance to the peice and a give it a little more drama.
