I like its abstract character and the creepy mood.

This is a very fascinating piece, mixing the red pen with the pencil makes for an interesting effect.

I feel that perhaps striving to make darker darks in the shadows of the face will help to deepen the shadows and make it stand out more. As it is right now, the red takes more of my attention. Aside from that, the only thing that stand out to me is the anatomy of the face seems a little off near her lipline/jaw, it looks a little too far in, so be aware of that.

Excellent work, keep it up!

it is beautiful. i really like the regularity of your red lines especially the pattern of the head lines. i also like the simplicity of it; your minimalistic use of colors: simple red and gray, very compatible. just maybe if you can darken the the right side of the face. i mean maybe darken the shadows and it will put forward the unfinished left side which i also like. (it reminds me 'the phantom of the opera' he had a mask like this). i have nothing to say about the proportions and anatomy but i am not sure of the right cheek; it looks like it ends at the mouth or it has been cut by the mouth. so maybe you can enlarge the cheek little bit by the side of the mouth (i guess ) but anyways it is a beautiful drawing good use of colors, nice minimalistic composition.

I do not hide that I've always been a fan of minimalistic and futuristic art. The drawing you presented deifnitely has the features I value so much. I really like the choice of tools, pencil looks very well with the red pen. I like the pose you have chosen. To my mind the best element of the composition is the hair/turban.

However, I am not sure about the left eye, is it unfinished on purpose, or is the drawing not ready yet? It also appears to me that you should draw the rest of the body, even just as a sketch, without paying too much attention to details, because I like how the focus should be on the head and on hands. As for hands, they appear a little bit too big, not proportional. It looks like the whole composition is overwhelmed by them, while I honestly believe that the head is the best element.

To sum up, it's a very interesting concept, but I believe you should "polish" it. (:

I like the mix between high detail shaded pencil work and minimalist line work in this piece. They meld together to create a modern, dramatic piece of contrasting styles. I like how the red lines on the cranium echo the musculature of the human head, while the hands are almost mannequin-like. I personally find hands very difficult to draw and you have got the structure down to a T with these.

Places to improve that I may suggest would be, a) Your spacing. The picture seems to be quite crowded into the top left of the page and would improve from being centralized. The negative space in the bottom right can be distracting as it is already a very minimalist composition. b) The darkness and detail of the face. The minimalist lines are currently very striking and contrast nicely with the detail and shading of the face, but darker shadows and extra details would make this contrast even greater. Do not be afraid of dark spots in your shading. Pencil work does not always have to be grey tones, you can experiment with blacks and whites too.

This is a very promising piece and you obviously have a great grasp of the human figure.
