i gave it a 5.. which i feel is sort of an average vote. The black background was a good choice, but it didn't really stir up any emotions or thoughts inside of me. I am not sure what i would have done differently.. or how i would have painted it different... but it looked like a vase with light flashed on it... as apposed to a picture that created thought, or intrigue or reflection, or just a nice combination of shapes and colors...
maybe (not saying that i know).. but maybe if you had higlighted the rim quite bright... then left the neck quite dark... and then highlighted the pattern area on the widest part, then let it get slowly darker as it went lower. With the painting with light theme you could illuminate this object quite creativly. Right now it is illuminated in the same stile as if there was a single light source from the frong right..... just some thoughts... take them with a grain of salt. |
