Well, I do live critiques! I sincerely enjoy looking at other artists work, trying to dissect what they have done and picking out my favorite parts to learn to replicate their techniques.
I have to say I was very shocked with the response from the group. Because mine was less literal and more of an abstract piece of art, I believe the general response was "that's pretty!". I loved this reaction, because I don't see myself of a literal artist.
However, I would like to be able to create something I would not have to explain entirely. I did hear from several people that "after you explained it, I really got it and I really liked it!". While that reaction was greatly appreciated, I think I will try to make my work a little more obvious when necessary, but will stick with my general abstract work.
I think I am starting to progress as an artist, as I do not have to think so much about what I want to accomplish with each piece. Everyone seemed very pleased with my composition, and I know that I did not really have to take time to perfect it. Because of this, I now have more confidence in my work when it comes to overall composition.
Overall, I think I did very well on the first project, and look forward to the next!
