Interesting concept though the colours look extremely fake, as if used with a brush and added elements. In the end it just doesn't hold much weight.

Ya boo about the dq etc. I suppose there's too much dead space/ uncomposed space - ahem - ok, you got me, I don't know what I'm talking about

but the basic idea (?) of the profile and the cutout mask profile is superb. Thanks.

The picture's a book about the title.

your new style of working is really resonating with me greatly. the colours and tones in this one are simply gorgeous - rich and jewel-like. the awareness and use of negative space are superb, with the emptiness and subject balancing each other in perfect unevenness. the graininess works very well too, and the repetition of the man's profile, positive and negative, left and right, is wonderful.

Too bad about the DQ. This is still an outstanding creative portrait. Beautiful.

Yikes! Too bad about this. Try to watch it; I'd hate to have to see you sit out of any challenges.
