Thank you for the +Watch, Cindy.
You're obviously accomplished and knowledgeable, so excuse me if come across like a know it all. I mean no disrespect. I simply comment to others as if talking to myself. In fact, there is no as if. I look at the work and analyze as I do my own. If you get tired of it, let me know. Be blunt. And feel free to return the favor, whether to crit my artwork or fiction writing. Good critics are hard to come by.

Lol. No, you don't come off like that. You just sound very knowledgeable and are able to articulate very well, something I often struggle with. Blunt, honest criticism is a good thing, I'm just not personally good at it and I never feel qualified. Isn't that weird? I am just a tad weird. Lol. I checked out your gallery and I think your art is gorgeous. I love your figures. They flow so naturally. Beautiful drawings. A lot of fun things to look at in your gallery. I wish I had more time!! If anything strikes me about your work that I think might be beneficial to you, I will try and articulate it for you. You are very kind to spend time on my drawings. Well it's run time and then off to bed. I will do some more gallery browsing and a few sketches of my own, when I return, I hope!!

BTW- that is one of the benefits of actually studying art with the head instead of using only the hand. it gives you the opportunity to intellectually analyze, which opens the door to critiquing the work of others. Practicing critiques will accelerate your learning and press you to advance in skill, too. Sometimes a more advanced artist will take you to school and make you eat your words, of course - but if you both have the right attitude about it, it is always mutually helpful. I keep my critiques categorical, circumscribed and as neutral as possible where it comes to personal likes and dislikes.
Any time you want an honest and halfway well informed opinion, just ask.

Thank you, I will. I haven't critiqued anyone in 5 years. My artist friend asked for me to do so on some particular works of his.. That was the time I have done any critiquing for someone.

Critiques, friends and family just don't got together well. Better to work with strangers. This way there is less pressure to be nice, instead of honest.

Very true. Lol. I want to take a look at your writing when I can. That is also something I dabble in.

Wow. A true natural. For some people creativity finds outlets in all areas: writing, art, music, dance, sports, whatever; it's not channeled by a single talent, but expresses itself in every facet of life. I think that is as it should be.
BTW - the fiction samples are pretty uneven, so I would recommend "The Dark Side", which is pretty much in the middle. Not to push . . . but, hehe. (This way you don't have to hunt for it.)
The Dark Side"Through me is the way into the woeful city;"
"through me is the way into the eternal woe;"
"through me is the way among the lost people..."
"...Abandon every hope, ye who enter."
(Inferno - Dante)
Two A.M. on Saturday morning found us cruising Philadelphia in Daphne's
new Ferrari. We had put down the top in order to take in the night. We had taken
it in; now we were drunk with it.
Daphne langoured in the driver's seat, barely steering with a thumb. She
looked beautiful. Dare I say she looked the way the car would look if it had big
blue eyes instead of headlights?
Black was her color of choice, tonight. She wore it in the form of a leather
miniskirt, textured stockings and thigh-high boots that she'd bought on a recent
shopping spree in Rome.

Ok, thanks. I will take a look at this with careful attention...in the meantime I will give it a quick run through until I can be at home.......

Not too careful. Hehe.
I almost never "force" a read-through. If a piece doesn't seduce me, I drop it, unless I'm really interested in explaining what's wrong with it. Who has time? But that's part of the test, isn't it? If you don't have time and something makes you make time, then that's a win. And if, at the end, it makes you glad that you made time, then that's as good as it gets. I suggested this piece because it's short, meets my standard, and is complete compared to other samples in the gallery.

Hey! Cindy (from youtube) glad you stopped by. (What? You couldn't say a "hello"?) I'm going through your gallery. . . .

So sorry!! Hey! Hello! I am going to add some things so you can see my doodles and bare sketches, admittedly, many never completed due to time or boredom......

Great!
I think the sketch is where it's at. That's the foundation. A strong foundation is much more important than a nice finishing touch.
