An interesting and detailed drawing you have created! The shading and almost muted tone is delightfully highlighted by the vibrant colors of the young mans jacket. His expression is intriguing. I feel just a bit of abstraction which completes the work perfectly! You are very talented and I appreciate viewing your work!

This is an interesting composition. And, being a first offence can be traumatic and life changing. The focus, clarity and framing are good. The attention to detail is well done. The eyes are looking straight ahead which seems to imply he is open to listening. And, the hands are placed in front - more anxious than guarded. Balancing hands on the wood to steady him.You captured a strong energy here. The colors are complimentary.
And, the cool blue color of the background adds to the photo. The tone throughout is well done.

This has such a strong emotional impact, it's so sad to see a young boy in front of the magistrate after his first offense , he is well created with good shape and form, his wardrobe is well rendered and I think you did great to show his feelings by the expression on his face. Well presented!

Quite an interesting image posted here! Your fine and appropriate composition offers us a good look at him, resting his hands, lightly on the bar before him. His face, to me, suggests he did not like what he just heard, but is not yet quite ready to be sorry! Well drawn!!
