this is a good idea for a subject, but unfortunately there's not much to it. i think something in the background or maybe using the rule of thirds to put the subject in a corner would have made a significant improvement.

I like the subject but the lighting is dull and makes this shot lifeless. Perhaps taking it at a differnt time of day would have helped?

To be perfectly honest, this isn't the most exciting shot I've seen. Not really much to grab my attention. I think that in person it might have some effect, but as a photo, it just doesn't grab me. However, I think that you did a nice job of taking this photo. The lighting is good, no bright spots or distracting dark areas. Focus appears to be just fine, and actually I think that the crack is a little more interesting than the drawing its self. I might have prefered if the subject were off center a bit and not so centered.
