I love your use of color in the shadows. I'm making it a personal goal of mine to use more blue in my work, too. It just seems to enhance other colors more...

I think this is absolutely beautiful. I think you've captured his mood and presence perfectly, I love the softness of the colours and how they make the picture kind of dream-like, the two sides together make it look as if the painting could be a movie still. The atmosphere is amazing. Makes you want to know more about what is going on in this image.

I really like this. When I see this, I feel sorrow (as if he regrets something he did or will do).

The darkness of colors really adds the somber feel. Great work.

Hum, I like that persistent feeling of pensiveness I'm feeling while looking at it.

What is he thinking about? Downcast eyes, slightly parted lips, somehow submitted or even reconciled expression. I like it very much.
