Description What do you think of the Bokeh effects I added? Does it make the painting better or should I leave it out?

I think this looks fantastic. But here are somethings you could improve on: The man and the sheep/wolf/thing looks out of place i think it's in another style/ not as realistique. The backround looks so fantastic and amazing but you could have added forground elements like trees that are pushed by the wind, that would make it look more stormier ( if that was hat you were aiming for ) .
Here are things that look good/AMAZING WOW: The colors look soooooo good the blend with the green and blue, just WoH. The trees , i cannot even draw a meaf while you're here making a Bob Ross painting. The rain, the rain look very good but i think you could make them more rainy(?) (ike making them shorter). but they look good. I really like this macterpiece, hope you don't think i was too rude <3.

Hello Jenny,

thank you for your nice comment, it was not rude at all, it is lovely and you help me a lot with such advices. I will overwork the goat and the woman, cause they got mistaken by so many people who commented. Now I know that I need to make it clearer

Have a lovely day

When I look at this art piece I'm struck with a feeling of sadness and happiness, It's quite impressive! The dark tones around the focal point set the atmosphere for a sad and dark piece but the ray of light shining on them give a more lighter and happier feel. I also like how you included the what I assume is a dog into this art as I feel the mood would be a lot darker without it.

Here are my critiques:
for the focal point of the piece I would wish that the characters looked more polished and if you had a stronger sense of anatomy I feel this problem would be resolved. The man looks a little too cartoonish for the background mainly the oval head. The dogs anatomy could use some work as well. The dog looks highly overweight and I feel like that wasn't intentional. Its front paws look a little more like hooves of a horse, I recommend watching a slow motion video of a dog running for reference.

This art is rather good and with just a little more polishing it could be near perfect!

Hello Mady,

thank you so much for sharing your thoughts and feelings on this painting  . It interesting that painting made you feel like that. I can't have that first impression on that painting anymore you know so you helpo me a lot .

Ok I'm thinking of overworking them a bit more maybe

I'm sorry but I had to laugh so much about your comment about the "overweight dog". It's funny that everyone thinks it is a dog or a wolf. Actually the animal was intended to be a goat haha. So maybe I need to make it a bit clearer . And the "boy" is actually a older woman with short hair. But it's really hard to tell

Such a beautiful and realistic drawing! One thing I wish I could do is to be able to draw things realistically, which I suck at, due to my defaulting to a cartoonish art style. However, I managed to draw a realistic object, but I still don’t know about drawing characters realistically.

Other than that, I have to say that I like how you have combined greens and blues. There is a bit of connotation, with green representing the plant life, the trees and the grass, and blue representing the water, the rain and the clouds. I appreciate nature with all my heart, and I can see that you put all your heart into this drawing.

Scharle In reply to HopeDiamond3 [2018-12-24 13:14:38 +0000 UTC]

I'm sure you will get better step by step and you will soon draw realistically too if you keep practising! Just don't stop trying and you will slowly improve

I'm glad you like it. I love to play with colors and try to convey feelings with it. And I love nature and the rain. So maybe this shows in the painting a bit .

Wish you a Mrery Christmas!

As usual, your strongest point is creating a certain mood with color choices and lighting. The weakest point is the stiff running pose. This reminds me of one of my older works, which I'm pretty sure I've deleted already, but if it turns out I still have it somewhere, I'll try to remember to show it to you later because seeing the same problem in someone else's work can make it easier to spot.

Especially the head/ neck position instinctively reads as unnatural. It looks like he's fucking in his chin, which is something I would assume free people do while running. I must say I know very little about running since I spent my whole childhood being told I was slow and clumsy, so I avoided sports at all costs.

At this point, I think you could benefit from practicing gesture drawing, in order to develop a way to detect a line of action in a model pose and subsequently learn to create your own dynamic poses.

Another minor thing you can look into is introducing more tiny angles into silhouettes. If you look at photographs of people in similar lighting situations, you notice how all the edges of clothing form a small corner, as well as tucks, folds and wrinkles.

Hello Ilona,

thank you again for your detailed critique I'll try and overwork the piece as soon as I find the time which could take a while . I'll try and do some gesture drawing as soon as I have time too

Osoni-newyorker123 [2018-12-25 00:06:13 +0000 UTC]

good good good, after reviewing the image enough, I will give my opinion, which already clarified that it is positive

Well, the composition of colors is beautiful and harmonious with what you wanted to convey, it really transmits the feeling that eboca a rainy day, that is, tranquility and a certain magic that you feel when you see a forest and the gentle rain

I am very bad at shading or deep in the objects or scenarios, but you showed great talent with the shading of the grass and trees, which gives the impression of a grove and being a very large forest.

The effect of the speed of the drops is very precise and clean, maybe some are more inclined than others but the effect is very well seen

Now, the part that is the most striking and the one that is the most outstanding apart from the beautiful landscape, are the person and ... what I want to suppose is a dog, because frankly the size of the body and the shape of the legs do not I designed if it is a but or a sheep, really that would be shocking

The silhouette of the man is well defined and it really shows that he is a man, but in a certain way he sees something not very detailed, the fact that all his clothes are black and without a separation of pants and shirt, gives the impression of being a suit of neoprene and a bit weird

The shading of the dog looks very good, the tail is a little short but it fulfills its function and it looks good the effect of the hair and it cost me to realize it, but I got to see the sandals of the human, meh, it was a pretty little detail and aesthetic, because at first I thought I was barefoot

The drawing looks pretty good in general and really evoked several feelings of calm and beauty.

Hello Arturo,

I'm not sure if this is your name (if not, feel free to correct me )

thank you for your lovely comment. Makes me so happy to hear my piece conveys emotion to people, that's really a great compliment  .

Regarding the goat and the older woman, I will try and overwork those as soon as I get time, so they are not mistaken for a dog and a man anymore and I will also try and fix the clothing .

I'll let you know then

Hi! I'm from .

This is truly one of the most stunning pieces I've ever seen. The blending of blues and greens really make this look natural and make the picture flow nicely. The lighting in this piece is also really worth noting. It shows that the boy and the goat are the main focal point here (at least, that's how I am seeing it).

The art piece has both a sombre, yet happy effect...the sombre part being a dark rainy day, and the happy part being the boy and the goat running outside (kind of reminds me as a kid playing in the rain).

The only thing I would say is the anatomy of both the boy and the goat. The boy's head is a little too round. There are many great references you can find online to help you with this. Secondly, the goat appears to be a little overweight, almost resembling a sheep. Goats generally tend to be more slender in nature. Again, there are lots of great references out there for animals. Hope I wasn't being too harsh here.

To conclude, you made a masterpiece. A beautiful piece if art that definitely deserves recognition. Keep up the good work, you definitely have a talent.

i am not very good at the critique thing so i'm going to say this. this is a piece of art. i could see this in a museum. in an art auction going from the hundreds. i can tell the lighting amazingly. the trees are very well done. and i have to say, the entire piece radiates with professionalism.

it is a very detailed work and it has won my respect and admiration 10fold.

ProtoTEnterprise [2018-12-24 02:26:19 +0000 UTC]

Hi! I´m from   

This drawing is brutally impressive.

The angle of how the composition is focused, how balanced is the drawing about to feel something mega realistic, how they are drawn and painted both anatomically accurate man and how this wolf is executed with a coat that highlights it in that background Very complex: Exploits visual abilities.

How the trees are drawn, how the rainy stage is drawn and painted, how it is executed in general with gigantic amounts of details, especially the decentralization focuses in the two characters, which make the composition even more dynamic.

And what most surprised me of this drawing that it was time for me to finally see and contemplate: The increase of favorites (42 at this time). When I commented on your previous drawings, I remembered that it reached more than 20 favorites. It is finally doing justice. Finally I am seeing the artistic recognition that you deserve with all your heart, and you showed it once again with an impressive work of art <)

Dear Neo (can I call you like that?),

I never know how to thank you, your comments are always so kind and heartwarming. Oh to me the recognition I get now is really enough . I don't need it but it still always makes me happy to read such nice comments like yours and helps me to improve a lot. 

Btw it's really funny that everyone sees something else in the painting. Someone commented about the dog he sees. For you it's a wolf. Actually it was intended to be a goat haha. But it free for your interpretation, I don't mind
