Done for a challenge. I don't really like it, but eh, what can you do? Any critique/criticism would be greatly appreciated. It features this chick named Charlene Choi (I have no idea who she is or what she's famous for).

Gorgeous, m'dear. Love the fadedness and colours!

Charlene Choi is part of a singing duo named Twins who are very popular in Hong Kong, by the way. =)

i did
i dont know what she can do to make it look good
im saying everything needs working with... tints, shades, hues, sharpness, focus, the "fadedness"
maybe organize everything a little better or maybe if shes going for the more abstract type thing overlap the pics more add more or and scatter them.
hard for me to explain... "so much potential in art" i just dont know how to put it down lol

fadedness??? its called opacity......and u cant do much about focus on pics collected off the internet. A better critique would not just say work on tints and shades etc. You could say something like, use warmer tones or cooler tones.....Name a specific part of the compostion that you disagree with and then say what you would do to make it better. Btw, no matter is something is abstracted or collaged, there is still organization in it. What do u mean by putting 'so much potential in art' and in quotations?? anyway, in my opinion, things are organized very well, she is working in thirds obviously, and her images are all different sizes and opacities. There is a nice triangular formation that brings the viewer's eye around the composition without getting stuck in one area. I have one suggestion though...the image in the far left top corner I would flip it to face the opposite direction. That way the triangular/circular motion of the composition is more complete. I love how her typography has different weights and kernings as well. It flows very smoothly. anyway...T_R_G, that is how you critique a piece of artwork..say what u like about it and dont like about it...AND WHY??? Give suggestions, praise, and then be on ur way. _smile.gif

hm.... it's nice...but i guess if u want to make changes, i'd say the colors don't flow well enough, like it still looks like 3 pictures in one kinda of.. maybe just work on it a little more.. but i really like how it's coming out though.
