Hey everyone!
There are so many people that try so hard to express themselves through their art. We all know what it's like to have a vision and the feeling when we see our vision come to life. But sometimes we know there is something just not clicking with our work. We know that something is out or off but we don't know what it is. Lack of experience or training can sometimes be the culprit. Other times its external factors, tools that we don't know how to use properly or a art theory we don't how to follow. For whatever reason sometimes a strong fair critique can help. It can be frighting and down right heart crushing. But in the end it can really help someone grow.
I am not saying I am perfect as an artist or a teacher but I know when I see obvious mistakes or major issues for a piece of art. Sometimes I know how to help and suggest a solution that you may not even see.
So, that said I am offering a simple critique of work on this thread. If you want my 2 cents leave me a request and a link to the piece you want me to critique. If you want a private message please state that in the comment on this thread. Let see what you have!!!

I have a piece I'd love to have your critique on. The position of the figure should look familiar, the pose is based on one of your stock photos, cammy_sporty_1. The figure is a manipulated composite of 10 separate images.

Thanks!
Awfully nice of you to offer your advice here. I am self taught and have never really had any criticism of my abilities. I'm leaving a link to my recent work. Each piece really is about me learning the in's and out's of PS and I would love to hear your insight and some suggestions. [link]
Thanks again!

here you go.
I can see where you were heading with your piece. I am not certain what skill level you consider yourself with the tools you use or what tools you use for that matter. That being said most of my words will be pointed towards technique.
All the separate pieces have a white haze around them. Your cutting really needs work. The speakers have the same issue.
I think you put the colors over top of the objects for a disco like effect? If so, they are very strong and distracting to the eye. My eye goes to the colors and not the models.
There is no blending between layers so everything looks cut and pasted. And the paper back ground really does not go with the digital pieces of the rest of the work. My I suggest maybe a digital back ground? Or maybe notes on the paper?
Keep working at it!
Just my 2 cents.

The overall piece is beautiful. I love the colors and the detail.
you are having a little trouble rendering the lips but that is minor. You understand reflectivity in the eyes which is the most important single feature when recreating anything with eyes.
Your blue tempest is captivating. Chaos that looks that nice is not easy to do. Most times it just ends up looking like what it is called: Chaos.
My only design issue is that you have 4 objects in the shot. Traditionally 3 and 5 are the most pleasing but in this case I do not see it really hurting anything.
Well done!
Just my 2 cents.
Hope you are well, and have a wonderful day.
Would you be willing to, please?
Your skill at digital air brushing is getting very good. I love what you did with the added fabric. My only issue is that the piece on her right arm is not sitting right in my mind. A bit of a distraction after we get over the awe of looking at the overall image.
The fingers need a bit more refinement on the left hand...they look a tad like sausages. Again a minor thing.
I love the design on the cloth. Very interesting and subtle enough it does not steal from the focus of the model.
Thanks for sharing!
Just my 2 cents.
