hey is my submission of self portrait my oil painting, "In My Reflection"
Arshvir Sekhon
Nice reflection effect. The only thing I would recommend is to establish a horizon line, a plane, color or just as simple as a value difference in the background that separates your actual face and your reflection. Because right now I am having a hard time imagining where the surface that is reflecting your face is located as there is no other reference point for me to use.

Done using wax or conte crayons, honestly not sure. A bit of the perspective problems thoe...

Really like the shading and the use of crosshatching to describe the shape of the face.

My first ever self-portrait. Traditional A5 Watercolor. Would love some criticism. Duo-color.(red and blue)

I don't know if its only me but when I clicked on your portrait to see it in the expanded view. The picture was very pixilated and blurry. Try reuploading your picture and see if it improves the quality.

Here's my self portrait created on procreate, this is my current style would love to get a critique on it :D
Arshvir Sekhon
Really like the style. Try cropping the bottom of your picture where its just black or painting more so that it fills the empty space at the bottom. In my opinion it will make your portrait more grounded and will get rid of the illusion where your upper torso in floating in the air. The second thing I would recommend is to add some more value to the face. Like you did for the neck and sides of the face. Specially around the nose, eyes and the lips. Your face is the only place which seems flat compare to the rest of painting. What I mean by flat it that it is lacking three dimensional aspect to it. If this is part of your style then please ignore this part. I hope I was of help.

Here's me. Would love critique. Digital, done in clip studio.

Great job with the lighting and blocked shading. The only thing I would recommend would be to experiment with the background. Right now the value of your background is quite similar to some of the tones in your portrait. Try going with a darker background, vignetting or some kind of texture that separates your foreground from your background and make your portrait pop.

I have been doing art (drawing, painting, 3d/digital art) on and off for the past few years but for reasons, never been able to fully commit to it. I guess being young I though I had enough time to get into it but, as I am nearing my late 20es I have realized how life will get in your way and that this might be the last chance for me to peruse my career in arts. Do you have any advice of someone who has finally figured out that he would really love to pursue concept art as a career but thinks, has wasted to much time and is stressed by the amount of material he has to learn and master in a shorter period of time compared to someone in their early 20s. I may already know what you might say to this person but would like to hear some more of your opinion on it.
