  1. I like how you incorporated a fox into this. The colors are amazing and very nicely done.

  2. The skewed looking proportions and colors give a lot motion to your piece, I do think the wolf head and talk could have been integrated into the painting much more so.

  3. I agree that the head and tail could have been more incorporated into the figure to create more of a connection. I like the repeated shape/point from the breast to the rib to the hip. Those mirrored shapes complement each other well on the figure. The legs are elongated and skewed a bit, but I think it works successfully for the piece! It adds to the fairy tale-like narrative of the image. Great use of a complementary color palette.

  4. I agree with Ashley. I am not sure if the figure is wearing a mask or whether it is a person with a real wolf head. Regardless, I think that the head and tail currently blend into the background. I think that a little more work on this area will finish the painting.

  5. I really like your color choices. The bright, vibrant colors add a lot to your piece. I would just like to see the wolf head integrated more into the model's body. It feels a little separate right now, so I would try to blend some of the colors you used in the wolf head into the model's body.

  6. Your proportions are a bit elongated but I think it ties in with the sci-fi vibe that I get from your piece. It makes me think of something spiritual or celestial. I believe that it is due to your vibrant color palate. Awesome work!

  7. Although the proportions are slightly off, I think that the colors that you used to make the skin tone were very effective. I like the animal head, alongside the background the piece seems mystical.

  8. I really like how creative you were with this this piece. The purples and oranges you used really compliment each other. The wolves head does look like it should be turned a little to match the body and the tail does not look like it is attached to the body as the head does. The tail also lacks the same amount of detail as the head does. I still love it though good job.

  9. I think the range of colors used in this piece is fantastic, and while I agree that maybe the face and tail could be a little more incorporated I like the choice to use totally different colors, creating a disconnect.

  10. This definitely reflects your style. Awesome wolf head. The colors worked very well with the theme of your piece. Nice job.

  11. I love your style of painting. The whole torso area looks great. I love the colors you used and the way you created values. The curve under her right nipple, the one that appears on our left, looks amazing. I also love the way you painted the fox although I feel as though there needs to be some way to unify them. They almost seem as though they belong to different paintings.

  12. The color scheme is very vibrant in its ranges of blues and reds. There is a definite sense of outer space. The details in the hairs were done very well. I like the elongated and stylized form of the body.

  13. I really enjoy the colour choices in your shadows and highlights. The fox head and tail is not quite working for me though, even being so well rendered as they are. The tail looks to be a little less detailed than the head and the fox (wolf?) attributes distract me from the life model. I wish there were more information about what she is laying on, as it looks like a rock that is too small for her body.
