Another of the fifty schadenfreudes of gray. The foreground figure looks real enough to have been drawn from a photo. The background figures are more rudimentary and rushed.

There’s a measure of hope in the green figure, which is facing our heroine and may be approaching with friendly intent. In real life, depressed people (even those who would value human contact) are actually sending out large “Stay Away From Me!” signals that no one they’d really want to meet will violate. Such is life, so it goes.

I will class this as an upper tier effort. Thanks, Artist!

I liked the pointy effect you did with the shadows, and I really, really liked how each of the silhouettes in the background are posed in a way that lets you instantly know how far they are from the main character and where they're standing, despite the fact that we've got no horizon or landmarks as a reference. Really well-composed, IMO.

The grey girl is another great part. I like her face and I like the wrinkles you put into her clothes. Everything about her comes together to very clearly convey a specific emotion that's hard to put to words. Basically, you did what visual art does best, so great job!

No I am alright it's just i'm so stressed from work and I'm not getting enough sleep—

Sorry.

Good job, Artist, this gets across what you want it to. My only comment is that the green girl I think needs a tune-up. I get that you were going for unfocused, but the other two phantoms are looking a lot better in that regard, while Mrs. Green does not look like she would resolve into a person. The body-shape is weird and the hair isn't really wrapping around the head like it does with our protagonist here.

Pictures have protagonists, right? I'm new at this.
