This is wonderful! I would probably have a hard time if I'm to make something similar, but here's my two cents' worth of constructive criticism anyway: the forms are wonderful but the overall balance is still a bit shaky. The picture doesn't yet flow very confidently, but is rather shaky in gut-feeling. Perhaps some contrast to pull objects' distance apart and, definitely, to gain firmer shapes would help. Keep up the good works!

    I had a judge at an art contest two years ago tell me the same thing. xD It is actually very good advice, though, and I thank you for reminding me. This was back in Art I days, when I didn't pay much attention to composition. Wow, that was a long time ago... xD It's good to hear this kind of thing from someone who's not an old fart of an art teacher. ^_____^ Thanks again.

      Whew! glad that my opinion match up with a professional's. I think the composition is fine though, just the shades/contrasts and the moon's shape. Well, some art teachers do tend to be closer to being teachers than actual artists, but you know, they have their qualifications.

        lol. According to Larkin, becoming a teacher is equal to firing your muse. Makes me wonder about a couple of my would-be-professions... hmm. xD
