Pear Critiques are here!
Critique for the portraits coming Thursday, but I recommend level 2 students watch this critique video too. I give advice and demonstrate things that should be useful to both levels.

First attempt before watching the detailed guide. Made it bit too edgy.

Even after watching this video, I still am lost on if I am heading in right direction, I can see some of my values are too light and I'll keep working on it. Also feel free to point out mistakes you see, it could really help me has I don't have art community in my area, thanks in advance.

This is my first attempt. I was struggling with simplifying it. Don't know if I did that right.
I would appreciate a feedback.

I think the issue here is the reference. It’s a very pretty photo, but the bright white background is causing a lot of reflected light that flattens the image.
Find a reference with a darker background and a single obvious light source.
Maybe even light your own still life using a desk lamp.
Your drawing is really nice and clean. If you want to get the most out of this assignment, try again with a new reference.
Thanks for sharing! Good luck 👍

I've been working on my mistakes. But the portrait is very hard to simplify, I get lost in the details... In the previous you can see smooth transitions.

From left to right is the original project, the demo, and the critique. The difference between the three isn't super crazy, but by the third go I was definitely understanding the process a bit better. Learned a lot from this project, good luck with the next everyone!

There should be a lot of mistakes, don't know how to identify to fix them though. Would love to be critiqued (Also sorry for the bad camera quality)
