Artwork by Alexandra, Old Masters Academy student
Hello again, Natalie,
Thank you so much for your previous critique. It was so helpful.
Here’s my new portrait and I would really appreciate your advice.
I do not know how to finish it. I am not very happy with the shadows because the portrait doesn’t feel 3-dimensional; but I can’t figure out what I am doing wrong.
Could you help me?
Thank you and best regards,
Alexandra

Hi, I like your thorough critique
Stay well!
Love how you can change little things in the portrait and it makes such a huge difference. I wish I could draw like that. I was wondering if you would have time to reply to my email, as I would like to know the computer program that you were using, it would be so much easier to use that then pencil drawing to practice.
Very nice critique video and I personally learned a Lot thank you.
Your critique was very helpful and I will use your tips in my own practice.
Thank you!
