Digital art noob looking for critiques!

[lilith-lion]

This was the first time I've ever done anything with a background, so critiques on composition would be lovely!

Hi! Welcome to the Crimson Daggers. On to the critique! (Which are really just opinions and I could be very wrong about them.)

I love how you rendered the crystals and the moon. It might help with the composition to change the angles of your background elements. I took the liberty to mark over your work (sorry!), and kinda demonstrated how it would look if the crystals were spread out. It might be a nice idea for them to point or suggest towards the intended focal point, the bikini-elf. I also took the liberty of turning the moon as such, so the tips point toward the subject, plus framing the bikini-elf better..

Love the your use of perspective on the cracks of light on the floor.

I hope it helps even just a pinch and hope you'll have a nice stay in the forums!

Thank you!! Love, love the crystal idea. I would have never thought of that. Seriously, it would have looked much better if I had done that! I will have to keep it in mind for other pieces!!
The moon is in a specific position, though I agree it'd look better the way you put it~
I'm glad you liked the ground- I was really proud of that part, and it was really a learning experience for me! xD
