Critique!



--->

the red figure in the center front
the way they mix with the shadow to the left looks a little muddy? like it feels unconfident or shruggy.

the left side lacks the same interest and flow that the rest of the picture has

the flow runs straight off the right side of the page. Needs a little flow back inwards.

the tan building in the back looks a little disjunct in style from the rest of this piece. Everything else has bold hits of color, but that building is a wash with sketchy lines over it.

the shadows coming off the figures aren't aligned in a way that makes geometric sense. Granted everything else is a little loose so its not such a big deal, but it adds to that strange sense of disorientation and vertigo, like i'm going to slide off the right edge of the page.

Overall, I think you're very talented. I like the gesture and the atmosphere, it seems there was a lot of considerations as to what people needed to be what colors. Maybe that hesitation comes across in the piece?

Thanks for posting, and thanks for wanting to receive critique!
