Description
I wanted to make a random sketch for coloring practice, watercolours and inks or markers, but I started sketching with the 0.3 pencil, so the details got out of hand again... Thus markers because I was not enough of a masochist today to do it with watercolours
By the way, I do love blue.

Many thanks for taking the time to write such a detailed critique ! Your suggestions are very important for me, as I am indeed still trying to learn more about composition and anatomy. Shading is also one of my biggest problems right now. All that you pointed out was very accurate, and it helps a lot to get this kind of feedback, because it's hard to see exactly what's wrong myself! Moreover, I'm absolutely delighted that you liked this piece, and the stained glass effect, which I wasn't sure if I got right.
I am very honoured that you spent time looking at this picture, and will try to make good use your advice!

I'm glad you put all those details in. This is really amazing! I love blue too and the yellows, browns, ect all add a nice extra touch of color to balance it all out. Great work.

First of all I'd like to say you've done an excellent job with the details and coloring. It feels as if you actually cared for this piece when you were working on it, and I like that a lot.
I think her head tilts in a way that makes her face a little bit distorted.
This can easily be solved during the process by holding the sketch or drawing in front of a mirror. That will make it easier to see all flaws. You should try it out next time you draw traditional art!

Thank you very much for your detailed and thoughtful comment! (and sorry for replying so late, exam weeks are living hell @_@)
Thank you for the advice, I never thought of the mirror ! Usually I just rotate it, and thus it's harder to see all the mistakes... I'll keep that in mind for my next traditional pieces !

Thank you very much ! Due to my lack of anatomy skills, I tend to draw static figures... So I wanted to make it interesting at least with the composition ^^
