Critiques
I like this piece a lot.
Vision: This does not look like a 'let's just start putting things on the canvas and see what we get' sort of image. It looks well planned, either on paper or by some kind of sketch (in your brain or otherwise). The colors are very nicely done: there are only two. Anything that isn't cold, is hot basically. Even though the 'hot' (the woman) only provides a glimpse before she is covered in shadow, the viewer knows what is going on there. The 'cold' uses naturally occurring elements, such as the lights in the alley, to provide compositional cues that reinforce that all eyes need to be on the woman.
Originality: Well, we see a lot of sexy women doing sexy things around here, so it takes something new to stand out. This does. She's just walking, probably not quickly, with that whip in what looks like a dangerous place. I think even a hardened thug would give her a wide berth. That qualifies as sexy for me.
Technique: I can't find any flaws. Well, maybe the fog has a couple rough spots, but that's nit-picky and may be intentional.
Impact: Like I said before, you made this a week ago and I've kept on my watchlist page so that I had a reminder to come back to it. In a sea of stuff that's nice to look at, this piece floats to the top. Thanks for posting this.
