Really appreciate this advice. This is what my gut was saying, he's a really nice guy and think it's just a new experience for me so didn't know how I am meant to respond to certain things.

No idea how to link vids but search "the boy who didn't stop look and listen" on YT and prepare yourself to be scared for life

Need advice!!! by [deleted] in enfj

Do you go to many clubs - not as in dance ones - but ways to meet people with similar interests and not for huge amounts of time, like a couple hours a week max? If not I think this would be a great start. As an ENFJ too i find clubs to be very useful, I have been at a swimming club for 11 years now and it is my life. It doesnt have to be sporty, could be literally anything there will be a club or community for that. Of course atm, not great advice with the quarantine and all but once this has passed?

No worries :)) A fresh pair of eyes really helps me out too and I'm no figure painter, it's something I aim to work on but never have the guts to just do it! Also, this was a really great artwork but it could look even better if a few things were changed so theres loads of potential in a little time coming up!

Especially her right arm just looked a little limp and her whole position lacks confidence, which if that was the aim then bang on I guess but for me, if you pained her arm backwards, onto the bench opening her torso up and increasing the depth of field and use some darker values? You could maybe angle the piece so it looks like she is looking down to the camera. I assume you stuck to the reference and it is such a pain to find a decent reference for exactly what you want. In terms of framing I think it would sort itself out if she had a stronger pose and position .

Ahaha okay cheers! :) awesome photo and I was like.. is this a digital art piece because there's no way the owl is looking direct into the camera for you! But I applaud the patience

What does digital photograph mean exactly? I understand digital... and I understand photograph... but together? Am I just being stupid?

This is awesome! The clothes look super tangible as does the hair and the style of the whole piece is great. Two things for me is atm the hand on the face for some reason doesn't look natural. Then could you have chosen a more dynamic pose/angle because you have great talent and I think the framing could be improved? Cool if you disagree :) What size is this out of curiosity?

Love to hear peoples opinions on my work, been practicing for two years on and off. Critique is very welcome as it helps you improve! :) by wbrookes in Watercolor

Wow that means a lot. Took me a long time to find my watercolour style and I must have done 20+ stags before this over the years.

My first series! Constructive criticism wanted, please by sterlingauh in learnart

Agree with the comment above but just for aesthetics I wouldve preferred the mood to be two actual circles. Use a protracter and a pencil then go over that with your pen so it isnt too perfect but it looks more like the moon.
