Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
Shadows alone aren't really minimalism to me, and there's a lot going on here for me to think of this as a minimalist shot. You're also (probably unfairly) falling victim to my prejudice against woodies (they do absolutely nothing for me as subject matter, sorry); that said, you did a wonderful job with the lighting on this, showing more than just the bare outline (though I may have actually put the figure behind the frame, as the bits of highlight showing at the bottom are distracting to me); I'm bumping it up a bunch from where I first voted it.

Does not completely fill the frame but I love the result of the lips. Very nicely processed!

I liked the idea and the work on it. I think that, regardless of the actual theme of the challenge the area on the left is distracting. I would have crop tighter or turn the face a little.
