Martin I think that critique is the most vital thing to improvement. If people just tell you that whatever you can create is good it simply will not point out the areas that can be lifted to higher levels. Everyone wants to be better at what they do, they wan't the competition because that's how us humans are made but without having effortly written reviews to back you up, you'll never really know what you as a person can achieve because you'll always be standing still at same point, repeating your misstakes, or rather repeating same style without advancing.

Let yourself be heard!
Do never feel that you're "begging" for reviews by posting here for help. Some people might be able to push it by themselves but others may lack that strong area and so it's just natural to recieve help from other fellow members because at the end of the day, asking for help is a startpoint for accomplishment, once you've had some help pinpointing out the areas that can be improved you'll find yourself in a position of which you suddenly know how to do the walk by yourself.

APaperFaceOnParade If you're not too busy, I wouldnt mind some critique on my newer work.

I'd like to see if I really am improving and how I can continue to do so.

thanks so much!

riftmaker Sup, Raika here. I'm open to all forms of art, but specifically photography, drawn work, and photo-manipulations. I'm pretty good with color and composition and am a lover of contrast (deep shadows and bright lights). Abstract art isn't my forte however I'm willing to give it a shot.

I tend to be as honest as possible with my critiques, and deeply remind you that I can only give you suggestions. I can also write longer reviews (multiple pages worth via Word document) of your entire gallery in general, however because they take a long time to write, I usually do not do them unless the person I'm writing it for is willing to listen and pay attention to what I have to say.

leiko i was an elite reviewer back in the day, and i am experienced in offering serious and detailed critiques both through studio art classes, and through writing workshops. and i am used to critiquing every aspect of a piece-- overall, detail, how the parts fit together to achieve your overall goal, use of technique, skill, everything. but i usually don't give my real critiques until you request it specifically, so if you want one, ask me!
