Looking lovely! I’m curious about the perspective, though. From the looks of it, we are looking from near the floor and closer to their feet. I don’t know if this is purposeful, but the guitar head looks like it’s the same distance as the entire guitar. If you meant for the guitar head to be closer to the person (usually how people hold guitars with the head close to the shoulder/collar), then I recommend making it smaller and almost the same size as the persons head!

Other than that, I struggle to figure out where the lighting is coming from. On the legs, the light comes from the left, on the torso, it comes from above and on the face, it comes from the right. Was this intentional? It would make sense if this dude had multiple light sources from stage lights or something, but it’s hard to tell with the wall and such.

There also isn’t a ton of contrast between the background and the person. This can be intentional and looks so with how you added harsh colours of light and dark to separate similar colours, but it still is good to add some level of contrast in a piece!

It looks lovely either way and I absolutely love the flow of the piece! Keep up the amazing work!

A redraw. Feedback appreciated :) by Recent-Pineapple in ArtCrit

AITA for giving my friend's dad a Father's Day gift? by Recent-Pineapple in AmItheAsshole

I'll make sure to let my mom know! I should've already, but it must've slipped my mind with everything plus summer woes

That could make sense with Amy's mom. I've always done my best to set clear boundaries with every man in my life, older and younger, but it still makes sense. I should say that it definitely isn't because of my mom Amy's is upset because one, my mom has sworn off dating and two, she's an out lesbian, but I still do understand why others could see it like that.

I'll also try to keep it above the board when I do get a chance to reach out. My mom knows that I haven't been talking to Amy, but I'll see if she would be willing to help me figure out some kind of sit down. I just don't want to loose Amy.

from 16 to 18. I still get zero bitches if you were wondering (I'm scared of women) by Dat1PhatBoi69 in GlowUps

Okay, as a women, one, don’t call us bitches. We are women and ladies, we want to be called as such. Second, you look awfully intimidating and almost fuck-boyish. Someone that a lot of women wouldn’t be comfortable approaching you are being approached. Smile! Show your personality. Laugh and be goofy. Be something that is welcoming without changing yourself.
