I love the design aspect of this, even completely divorced from the subject matter. It's crowded, but in a controlled way. Eeee.

Beautiful I love the realism, and the lines (Huge fan of Schiele [link] who I always connect to that kind of linework...)

I love it, so here's my feedback

I don't really understand the spiral staircase on the right, I mean I know the word spiral is in the title, but I don't feel like it fits. Everything else is delicate and hand drawn, and that isn't. I think just cut that edge out.

Also the size relation between the man and the stork are to simular, so the eye goes to the more colorful size (the man) first. So then the stork is somewhat lost. I think it'd be great if the stork was larger and it's wings played more with the lines of the girls hair. Then that would create a complete circle of sight around the piece.

Hope you win, what's the contest, is it for scad?

I feel like it'd be more balanced if the picture stopped about where the center pole in the staircase is... though I don't know then what you would do with the staircase other than get rid of it.

lovely picture, though! I really like this style.

About the guy's left leg...the way his foot is bent, you ought to be able to see more of the inside of his thigh. The way it's situated now seems a bit anatomically impossible.

I feel like the composition would be stronger if the guy was either more in the center of the piece or was further to the right, because he seems to be the focal point but he's in a bit of an awkwardly random place for that and it makes things look sort of off-balance.

Though, the off-balance thing might be more related to the fact that there are a few spots of negative space that just seem very randomly placed, and those bother me a little because the other parts are very very busy, ans this imbalance makes things seem less...cohesive than they should. But that might just be me and my obsessive sense of horror vacui speaking.

Oooooh, this is lovely! I really like the colors you chose. It makes it quite dream-like with the man being in bolder colors as opposed to the softer colors in the background. Very impressive!

moonelfknight [2009-04-13 01:17:58 +0000 UTC]

Love the colors & swirls, along with the sort-of "pen-ish" outline. My only issue would be the man's left foot; the way it bends seems a bit too awkward.

Other than that, this is great!

This is rad! I love the swirlyness in the middle there, and I love the simplistic color scheme. <3
