Artist's Comments

quick environment sketch for Tundra - a personal project I am working on. The tower's characteristic features in the far background can be recognized as the Kola Superdeep Borehole scientific project [link]

Critiques


:icontonyguaraldibrown:
nice. strong sense of realism. this is very similar to Caspar David Friedrich's Abbey in an oak forest, which i find to be a very amazing and strong painting. Is this painting's subject matter strong enough to stand on it's own, maybe. I do feel that the tower is a little simple and my sense of interest then ends up lying in the foreground, which has been treated beautifully. The subtle sense of color and movement is strong but i feel that the canvas is an odd shape and is therefore leaving the top 2/3 of your painting empty. maybe bring in the canvas width and make the canvas taller and in doing that you can then bring the tower a bit closer to the viewer and giving us a bit more detail in it. We could then see the fog moving in and around it the texture and bricks/metal of the tower; wetting our appetite and making us want to see more of what you are hiding from us. If this is a bit to ambiguous let me know and I'll write more and explain myself better.

very nice
it has a good sense of realism; i thought this was a photo at first glance
the perspective and style of the environment certainly contribute to that, it looks like something you'd expect to see in real life

You say this was a "quick sketch"? Damn!

Either my vision is awful or you know how to make sketching your bitch, because I thought this was a photograph when I first saw it. :+fav: for blowing my mind.
