Portfolio pieces WIP- help please

Tough one. I think top right is the weakest one as I personally feel the turquoise is competing to much for attention. The left side ones look beautifully atmospheric, but the blue does tend to shift the focus even more toward the dancers. I think if you do add blue, I'd possibly lighten the value and maybe extend it around the sun halo very slightly.

@Perrij definitely. The comps are still very rough though. I’ll make sure to correct the lighting when I get to the final painting stage. Thanks for the input!

@TessaW i definitely see what you mean. I also like he blues on the left comps. I think they add more interest to the atmosphere but I also think they are too saturated. That’s why I came up with the color comp below. I lowered the opacity fo the blue until it became thisbrownish/greyish blue but I think it suits the piece more. Thank you so much for the input.

Hi, everyone! I’ve been painting my latest and I came to a halt. Though I love the afternoon lighting, I again felt that it did not suit the scene well. I don’t feel like an afternoon setting would be best for this one just like my Itik-Itik piece. So I made a midday version and I love it more. Here they are below. Please let me know what you think.

I like it, Only one thing, the red and orange of the shirts are to similar to the red banner in the background
-
@MichaelaH i agree. I’ll have to tweak that later. It’s still very rough

Hi everyone! I’m starting a new illustration. This piece is about guava picking. We used to do this a lot when I was younger. I’ve decided to experiment with the eyes on this one. I’ve always found dot eyes to be appealling. Now, i’m revisiting my first love. LOL!
stay tuned

Cute! You can't go wrong with dot eyes. The gestures are turning out great. Guava picking was also a past time of mine.

@Nyrryl-Cadiz I love tryin' to teach kids how to dance the tinikling (how to tinikl?) You captured the moment between 'clacks' perfectly
-
@Nyrryl-Cadiz Looking great as always, You are so quick
-
@TessaW Thanks! I’m really glad you like it.
-
@Braden-Hallett Thank you! Lol
the dance’s actual name is Tinikling not tinikl. I’m happy you like the scene but I kinda feel like the m0vement is lost a bit. I didn’t know how to show the clacking of the bamboo or the speed of the dancers. I was hoping for some thing like this:
Oh, well.. finished not perfect I guess.
I think it’s so great that your palnning to teach it to your students. Tinikling is actually the national dance of the Philippines. It’s a fun, casual dance good for everybody just be sure your feet don’t get caught by those sticks. But that’s the fun of it.
Also, to all of you curious people out there. Here are links to Tinikling videos on youtube.
