An attention-grabbing scene! I think, overall, this looks pretty good.

By painting the subject so small in relation to the atmosphere, you have generated a sublime effect (atmosphere overpowering the person) which is particularly relevant in the mood you were trying to create. I like how you have positioned the girl just a tad off center, to provide balance between the subject and the bright light on the right. Throughout the composition you have used curves, which tie in together very nicely (such as those around the subject & around the light). I think that's very clever.

What I would like to see though, is more of a contrast between the foreground & the background. currently it seems a little flat. If you had rendered the tones lighter in the background it would have been better... or even just draw something small & light in the background to indicate depth of field.

Aha, a familiar name! From the moment I saw your work, a few names pop up that might be an inspiration for this painting. Artists like `AquaSixio with [link] and `OchreJelly with [link] . Big talents and you're on your way too. So you can expect an extremely harsh critique!

I like the composition so far, but in my opion it can use a lot more details to it. It seems really too quiet now. The best thing I notice about the drawing in general are the two little tiles that are missing. It indicates that your scenery lived, was used. It creates a substory: what happened to those tiles? Maybe a few kids were jumping in the water and some tiles couldn't handle the weight? A substory is really important in sublime paintings. Sublime subjects are subjects that you can't describe in words, like the perfect sunrise, the perfect mountainscape, the ocean, ... Give your painting a life! Add little substories, but don't take it too the obvious, because you had me with the missing tiles, but the jetlines in the sky, on the other hand, take me out of that story you're creating. It reminds me of an airport and takes me back to reality. It's also a cheap trick to 'generate reality'. I really wouldn't do those in a painting like this. The mountain-island should be more in the distance assuming the jagged horizon are trees. A much easier way of fixing the perspective could be to lower the horizon of the sea. Try it and you'll see. The super distorted lenstrick is also something that takes me out of your story but done well, it can enhance the painting.

Technique wise there are still a lot of things to be improved. You nailed the clouds very well. They aren't realistic, they are still very rough, but they appear to take their place in the environment. That's not an easy thing to do. The lensflare would be the first thing that I would loose on the painting though. That's another example of fast and cheap and it takes the quality of the painting down. It might also be a good tip to stare at photos of lakes and how they reflect clouds and mountains. I have a feeling the sea can have a bit more work.

The final point of interest might be the way you render material. The clouds and mountain are great as I mentioned befor. But you confused some materials on the frontpart I think. While you overhighlight the stone tiles, you underlight the person. Stones will never reflect sunlight like that and definately not a sunrise since the lighting isn't very hard then. I would overpaint the white rimlights to keep the balance of the person.

You scored well on Vision and Impact. I love these kind of paintings that take you to another world and makes you want to be there. Originality and technique aren't your strongest points in this one, but I'm a hard guy to please.

I hope you didn't mean it when you said it's done. I would really encourage you to take this a whole lot further. You obviously loved painting the clouds, why not take the rest of the painting to this level?
