Description night lullaby~

Fortunately my shoulder had healed now, I'll try to more active here

Darkmello has been one of my favourite artists since i stumbled onto her page. I love her style a whole lot. Her stuff is always magical and has a certain pastel luminosity.

I'm not as good an artist as her and am not really qualified to critique but nobody has critiqued my work though i would love it so here goes ....

Love the inverted bunny ears. Love the purple cloud. The foxes too... However i feel that the way this picture is lit, is a little haphazard. The objects in the painting all seem to be lit from different light sources.

Personally i also feel that there is too much black in this painting. And maybe if there is a clearer foreground, middle and background, there may be greater depth created.

Wow critiquing this piece has made me think how i can improve too. Cool~!!

cheers ~

give good crit is so much harder than give any compliments so thank you for take your time and give critique, much appreciated!

I agree with everything you said, which I realized about that after reading your crit carefully and take a look again to my painting

Different light source, honestly I don't really understand this...(but this piece certainly need second light source because the dark tone is so boring)
Too much black..., I think I ruin the piece with too much black must learn lot about hue and it's variations in dark tone
About clearer foreground, when I drew this, I make big leaf in left bottom much clearer, and it ruin the focus, so I make it darker, and I ended up do that to another object in foreground (how simple the way I thought )

yeah ppl said that give crit can improve your art, maybe I should try it too

pardon my poor english m(_ _)m

NOT SO GOOD START?! T_T"
...man, you probably just struck me and maybe that's way I think it's just so... awesome.
It struck me, since I love suits, beards or basically, the whole guy and all it's attributes that so well fit together to form that image of a man thats benevolent, patient and really considers all you say. Someone dat has all qualities of a gentleman. The imagination of this piece very much reminds me of my own sometimes... as it's very vivid and soothing for your heart after some rough days etc.
This might re-energize my pursuit to go and learn to play as many instruments as I can - Go violin
(oh, and I agree to the precious statement; you should make a childrens book, if you haven't already... I'm sure it'd look great!)
