This is a freehand picture that I did in my sketch pad at the hospital while waiting for my husbands acl surgery. Black ink, Freehand, 6 hours.

Good use of shapes

I like the way this one works out, with there being one main outline around the whole picture and everything within that outer line is just detail. The way the main girl's arm makes up the jaw and face line for one of the background characters is clever and the effect is pleasing.

The character to the right of shot appears to have too much neck hidden away, as her shoulder seems to come out of the base of her skull, as opposed to there being a discernible neckline... or is it the same character on the other side, just her body continued? Wow, that's impressive, as there's the whole question of what you see, a vase, or two women facing one another. Now that I think about it, I can see both, which is freaky.

I think that the crowning glory of this piece is probably the hair lines that you've used, as they can lead so easily into something else and mess with our minds, as a result, thus making us consider perhaps a little too much about the piece.

Thank you so much for such an in depth review! I definitely liked the way the faces in this one worked out.

Still good.

This is one of the ones I find to be strange. You made the lines a bit more thicker, and thick lines aren't much attracting to me. I like the background behind the first girl, but the girl herself(if she is the focal) I wish her strips were different.

I enjoy your style, but I would rather the stripes be a bit less thick, or for them to be in another style than the regular straight across.

But, as I always say to others and myself, your always the better drawer if you draw well xP

good job!

Thank you for the review! I agree with the thickness of the lines in areas. I'm still working on my freehand. =)

Nice designs within designs

~~REVIEW~~
Now this was really {CUTE} the drawing was cute the smooth curves and lines was great so nice effort on the linework, i thought that some of the {LINEWORK} could have been more {THINNER} ?? but still it was pretty interesting, now ofcousre some {COLOR} would have really spiced things up i could see some purples, and reds and so on but thats something to think about when doing these i love how you didnt just work on one design but a mixture of designs, seemed to all come together and i was impressed with that so nice job, anyways keep up the good work and i hope to see something new from you real soon.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
Some new ideas were made like, some color ofcourse, some thinner line-work, and so on

I'm currently working on adding color to my stuff. I agree that in some areas it could have been thinned out line wise. Overall a very fair review! I appreciate your suggestions and will try to work on these areas in my future postings! Thank you!

Nice work

Very good piece here and interesting anyways. Like how you just have a bunch of things clashing with each other and making an interesting scene here too. The girl looks cool I guess.

The chick has an interesting outfit and cool stockings on. Then the stuff in the background kind of makes me think it is something she is thinking of or drew and put up on a wall somewhere and then decided to stand in front of it and strike a few poses for it.

The details are nice here.

Overall, cool piece.

Interesting

I like the style of this one, it's pretty interesting and there is quite a lot going on in this painting.

It's really good for freehand and I'm very impressed, though I would like to see a bit more detail in the arms and limbs of your drawings. . .
I liked the way that the girl in the center was the focal point while everything else seemed attached to her, it gave the painting a lot more interesting look.

Overall it's pretty good!

Arms and hands are my major weakness, and something that I continue working on. Thank you so much for the good review!
