Artist's Comments

As much as I try to hold myself together.
I always tend to fall apart.



Be respectful. Honest opinions please.
(I don't know if I like it, might not keep =/)

very nicely done!

I think it's lovely and skillfully done, but perhaps lacks message...I wonder what it's "about." It strikes me as what a skillful photographer would do if inspiration was running short... Ok that's my version of "honest feedback"!

No, this is the feedback I'm looking for, that’s the kind of thing I need to hear in order to improve my next shot. Thank you =] And you have it right on the dot. I'm trying different things because I'm out of ideas.

I'm sick of the things I do when I'm nervous
Like cleaning the oven or checking my tires
Or counting the number of tiles in the ceiling..
Head for the hills, the kitchen's on fire!

EdwardCullenWHAT! :heart:

I just looked at some of your other work, and read the "rant" on your main page (very articulate for a rant by the way). You have a lot of strong feeling which somehow could maybe find its way into your work. The other shots I saw also tended to be skillfully done, but seemed somehow divorced from all that sauce you're showing in the "rant." Perhaps you need to take a hard left-hand turn with your subject matter and let it get more emotional? Freud said that emotions are the royal road into the unconscious. Sorry if I went on and on a bit, and I am bo no means an accomplished artist myself (mostly a writer), but you seem to welcome it.

I'm always welcome to criticism, good or bad. When I photograph, it's usually quick snaps and not often do I plan them out or try to put meaning into them. But I like what you are saying and that’s a new view point for me to look at. I appreciate it =]

Um, yea, Awkward...
I was holding myself but it could have been portrayed a little better. I was covering the bottom part of my bra so that’s why my arms are up so high.
