okay so it's time for a super long extra detailed critique!!!!! get your self some chips and some soda, and settle in this will be a long one~....


okay lets start with the color; there is an important emphasis on the person in the center, and the color surrounding it contrasts this which makes a great piece, the deep dark color leaves a threatening sense from this piece. the dark color really gives a sense of being at the bottom of the ocean, and the monotone through out it gives it a sense of unity. the debris every where is evenly spaced and not to focused at one point which is really good and creates a nice balance both on top of the drawing and below the drawing, the arcing sea bed really suits well in my opinion and it works super well in giving more to the sense of fear as said before, like its spreading out to consume the person and all the debris....the creature looking at the viewer is another nice touch and this really brings together the sense of utter evil in this piece, and really brings out the meaning in the title "Dangers of the Deep". and all of this really leaves the viewer wanting more, creating a sense of mystery and burning into the minds of many the curiosity that drives us all.

yet i can't help but question a little to much about the make up of this drawing, in some areas, but not many. it seems like in the distance there is tiny fragmented chunks of debris and garbage crumbling off of the giant objects yet im not sure at the bottom, it is really blurry and hard to tell,its obvious that some of the pieces are wood but im unsure if it is a ship or not, its not as defined, even though it is wrecked there bears no resemblance that i can see that pieces fit together. there is no way i can personally tell this is underwater aside from subtle clues, without the title i would have not guessed right away. there feels like there needs to be bubbles and swirls perhaps,

and yet there shines oh so more content in this piece, the sun shinning through the surface by the debris really is a nice effect and the surface light is just beautiful, the person has swell placement and it seems important with the way this person is falling, there is a decently clear sense of whats in the foreground and what is not based on detail amounts, that's always a professional skill to have. and all around i find this piece swell for the first few digital drawings, good job~! sorry to nit pick your drawing such but learning must come from criticism, and sorry i didn't write more,,personally i am down in the dumps. but i will come out of it. maybe ... >U< any way..take care!!!

That's a very interesting idea. I like how the the drawing as a whole has this dark feeling, like it actually is into some place deep. Plus, I think that the idea of having dinosaurs (?) is really good as well!

Now, since I have read your description, i see that you're new to digital art. I may not be a digital artist, but I believe there is a lack of focus in this drawing. I see that the character in the middle was supposed to be the focus, but the background and everything else kind of loses it. And the fact that everything looks so smudged, that one cannot understand what they actually are, hex why in the beginning I wrote a question mark after the word "dinosaurs". I can't make sense of it/them.

Anyway, it was a nice idea but executed rather poorly. I'm sorry if this critique may sound harsh to you, but I'm trying to give you ideas on what you should work on (and giving ideas to myself as well.)
