Critiques


:iconalltheoriginalnames:
Beautiful character and scene, and a nice combination of vibrant colors. Very peaceful scene, while hinting at an edge of violence.

And then comes the critique.....;)

I do think however, that the wind blown affect is not constant. The length of her hair is blowing backwards as is her rear loin cloth and the petals in the background. But her bangs, front loin cloth and hip straps, and grass are not.

Also on a beautiful sunny day such as this I would imagine a slightly different lighting with shadows. The light isn't casting any shadows in this and I don't really get that outdoor lighting feel from this. There is something off about it.

While I think the character is beautiful, she seems to have a rather blank expression. Which is such a shame because more of an expression could have really pushed the emotive edge of this piece so much further and dictated the atmosphere.

And while I like the looking through the grass point of view, I feel that too much of the grass is shown. I takes up over a third of the piece and seems distracts my line of sight, rather than guiding me eyes through the piece. I just feel it's too much and disturbs the flow.

That being said I like the play with the pov and dof that you've got going on, rather than a straight forward character shot. And you took some chances with some vibrant colors and it paid off beautifully. Adds a lot of drama and I am definitely looking forward to more.

The steep and rocky upward slope
Of that long and winding road
Redefines with every step
My unblemished sense of hope

I really like the perspective in this and what a great place to cruise around! There must be like 2 billion gold worth of poppies in this field and she better scoop some up for the big win! LOL! Great colors and a wonderful composition! Excellent deviation all around!
