    Thanks,

    As you asked ...

    Yup, I like it. Three things stand out for me: a person in the boat would make a difference; the flag is superfluous and spoils the whole thing and the lighthouse - not sure about the stripes which make me wonder if, perhaps 'tis a helter-skelter with a light on top.

    That is a subjective opinion - as you asked.

    Overall, I do like the picture.
    "Intbel" ... "Can't" is not an option.

    Compliance is futile. Resistance is futile. Just do your own thing an' ignore 'em.

    Man, you guys are tough! But, as I said, I asked for your opinions...

    (by the way, I was recreating a scene that I have on a serving tray in my kitchen . . . hence, the flag

    Well proportioned and in the essence of simple colors with line art.

    This type of art is versatile as it can be ported to other medium quite easily.

    Maybe the American flag is Donald Trump's. You know the one he is being sued over (neighborhood association) in Florida for being too big. heh heh, joking.

    It has a calm balance about it.

    I'm sorry you can't see your grade! It will be posted on the bulletin board with the others!

    All kidding aside, you drawing is excellent. I love line art especially those that invoke color in simple form.

    I agree. Loose the stripes on the lighthouse and the flag looks like a plank of wood with a flag painted on it. If you could make it wave a little it would look better or remove it all together might be better.
    Otherwise the rest of the drawing looks very good.
