Kramus, first off - the digital online files do NOT do these images justice, after having the extreme pleasure of seeing these pieces in person.
That being said. I think the first time I was suprised was that your work was able to evoke reaction in me. The pieces that did that were often unposed, felt natural, and just pulled at me. While I love the sun piece.. It is very hard to do it time as an art piece because there is so much going on. This isn't a piece I'd keep on the wall, its one I'd have in my lap to keep looking at all the details.
The women figures... while they are pretty, they still feel too posed. I have seen you look at the same thing I am and sketch it, and when you add your insight in the view... that is when I feel you seperate yourself from merely a sketch done in color. I hope that makes sense. The pieces where you have invested a part of yourself are easy to pick out, and those are the ones that I enjoy the most.
