What is the decision that goes into not giving a name to a work of art? This is lovely and evokes a feeling of uneasiness in me, but why don't you give a name to your work? I see this with a lot of art on newgrounds, where someone will post something called "Untitled_54" or something, or in this case "543368". I suppose if that's the name, that's the name. But a title for any work of art, music, literature, etc. gives you a piece of the artist.

I suppose if your goal is to make the meaning of this piece completely up to the viewer, then you've succeeded, but art is a piece of the artist. Your interpretation is more valuable than mine.

Either way, great work.

Thanks, with the whole naming thing you are correct, I like to let others see the characters as anything they might think of it as

Love it.

Thank you :)

Love it,

Anatomically, this elephant is completely wrong, but I don't think that's the point. What I, personally, would love to see from this is a background. A strong forest background, carrying over your psychedelic styling, of course. Perhaps with a different coloring tool (looks like crayons, and detail is not an easy thing to emphasize on with crayons). I think the elephant is fine naked, as opposed to what the guy below is saying. Definitely keep the pink smoke, and perhaps fill the hookah with pink smoke, underneath the green glass.

I would definitely like to see this piece look a lot cleaner. Smoother details on the elephant, the stump and everything else that is to come. Make the base of the hookah actually look like glass. Make the body of the elephant actually look leathery. Make the tusks look ivory, and so on. I think it would also be interesting to see other elephants accompanying the elephant. Perhaps a multi-hosed hookah and other elephants of different colors and different personalities that can be displayed by their looks.

This piece has a great deal of potential that I would love to see reached.

4/5 - 9/10.

Aquatic life,

I share the view of the fellow below me. Your use of patterns is amazing. As I said in the previous piece I reviewed, I would love to have this as a poster. The only thing about that I strong dislike is the use of orange. Or maybe it's just the word "Shark" that I don't like. I can't decide. Look into selling your art - people would buy it.

4/5 - 9/10

A Morbid Wassily Kandinsky

You have a very interesting mind, my friend. I find it very amusing that you labeled the piece "Psycho Eight-legged Deer" while the focus of this piece is not obviously the deer. The background draws me in much, much more than the deer does. I would pay you money to convert this into a giant poster and mail it to me, because I'm in love with this.

As the title says, your art style reminds me of Wassily Kandinsky; a late eighteenth century, early nineteenth century Russkie abstract artist. The difference is your contrasting use of colors touching each other and your morbid visuals (The deer).

You have a unique eye for colors and a very unique mind. You've earned a spot on my favorites, so keep pumping out good art. 9/10 4/5

Awesome, thanks so much. :) I was hesitant to post this on here because it was more for fun, I wasn't sure how/if people would "critique" it.

Very nice

First of all - I love parrots. So the moment I even glimpsed a parrot, I jumped right on this. The one thing I like the most about this is the detail. Those black lines coming up from the neck curling around the face and around the eyes - they're very interesting. I respect you as an artist, for your eye for detail. However, it ends here, as your eye for detail stops on the subject of the piece. The background is very lackluster. If you had put time into the detail of the background, I would be very happy. So, yes - I give this a 3/5 7/10. Excellent job.

I am a disciple of music.
