*Hello from Sid and the Critique Club*

I'm sorry you haven't received any comments, hopefully this critique will help

I feel for your model this pose and the hard chair on which she is balanced looks very uncomfortable and because of that it makes me too feel uncomfortable. I'm all for originality but I think a more natural pose would have worked better perhaps sat on it facing the back with her legs either side. This pose is also making her shoulder massive by comparison to her lovely face.

I like the dark background and the way your model merges into it though I would have preferred it if the white dots on her shoes had been subdued or removed they spoil the effect somewhat. I like her red gloved hand and her action with her finger but the tip is a little too close to her nose. I like the reds throughout they work well but again, with that pose everything is dominated by the shoulder and for me loses its impact.

The lighting generally works apart from the chair legs which again hamper the effect of everything merging into the background. I think some sympathetic processing on the skin would also have helped overall.

I hope my comments don't come over too negative they are meant to be an honest appraisal of my reaction to the image, keep at itâ€Â¦ Sid
