I really love how vintage the style is... and I do like the way the people have nothing defining about them. The girl and the guy are both wearing something trendy, but they're not unique- their faces really are pointless... which may just be an observation on my part affected by the title: "Hollywood". It made me think about the idea that Hollywood really doesn't care about faces- though one person may be the "it" girl right now, there will be a new one before long... even Hollywood has a sense of anonymity.
... or maybe I'm just thinking about it too much. Either way, as other people have said, the colors work well- and I like that the pictures look like they were stamped on.

You are totally right on. Hollywood is a city of barbies and disillusioned rawk stars. This town is so rock bottom it's cool.

It's titled Hollywood cause I got the inspiration for the piece here. You're right tho ... the guy on the right is much more valley inspired than Hollywood chic. Negative space is my god!

harvest colors seem to have become your trademark! it works really well, and the blue thrown in there adds a pleasing oddity

I could so see this on a t-shirt, it just reminds me of the 'retro' 70's fashion colors kids wear these days (and that damned Ashton Kutcher haircut too

That's pretty much the feeling you get from being in Hollywood. It's fun to live here, I love it even ... but there is a very sarcastic, dirty-fake atmosphere here. It's certainly the antithesis of the glamour you would expect! It's very rock and roll.
Thank you very much for the comment, btw! It means a lot!

awesome, love the first two but the third one throws me off a little...nice use of colors though, the grain and empty spaces are good and i like the busy but not so noticeable repetitive background.

Thanks for the critique! Is there any particular reason that the third one looks out of place to you? I'm curious so I can correct it in future designs.

hmmm...
i suppose its the slight greenish tinge in color, i also dont like the face there(itd be more interesting if it just stopped at the neck and the rest was the empty background) and the facial features and hair details...just look awkward to me. i do love the detail in the shirt, though.

Thanks babe! I think I see colors differently than most people ... Spot is forever telling me how much he dislikes my color choices, despite the fact that they compliment one another. *shrugs* I like em.

I love 'em. Don't listen to Spot

nice grunge style.. would've been nicer if the guy's face were a little more visible..

Thanks! I thought about that myself, but I did want a certain bit of anonymity since I know the person in real life ... I didn't want that to affect my own goals with the piece. I also wanted people to be able to relate to it and fill in their own face so to speak.
