Hello, hello! It is a glorious day (and no, I am not just referring to it being my birthday). The sky is blue, the air is a cool 76 degrees, and life is good. Thanks for all the warm messages! Let’s celebrate with my first-ever Crit Day!
Post a link to one original artwork of yours, and I will offer my critiquing services to the first 10 people who submit their work. (I’ll be surprised if I get more requests, but if I do, I will try to get to yours as time allows.) You have one week to post your work. On Sunday the 11th, I will begin critiques. It’s okay to post works in progress, although I would prefer the image to be at least somewhat complete—loose sketches are too early in the process.
If this goes well, it’s something I will try to do regularly. It’s a small way of saying thank you to all my followers and watchers. Truly, I am so grateful to have had so many people take an interest in my work and my blog. My ultimate goal for my website and blog is to be a resource for others. I can’t tell you how much critique has helped my work improve. I wish I could get in-depth critiques on all of my work, but now that I am working for commercial clients, I find that non-disclosure agreements have heightened my appreciation for some good old CC.
So go ahead and post away!

Thanks for doing this. I'll definitely take you up on that. I've had a hard time finding accomplished artists that are willing to give some feedback. You rock!
Here's one of the commissioned pieces I did recently.

What a kind and generous offer! :)
I know there are a lot of things wrong with this, but fresh and better eyes than mine would be appreciated. http://memilly.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d47up44
Lightheaded and sleepy I offer my inner soul to you. LOL, just kidding. I would love some feedback from you.
Thank you!

I think it's really cool that you're doing this Ashley :).
I'm a beginner still, but I have a work in progress that I just started, and I would like to get off on the right foot :)
