OK, What are you trying to say with that painting.  There is no doubt in my mind that you are trying to say something.  Come on out and say it.  That may turn the hounds loose.

Who ever put the five stars to this painting should at least put their name with it.

You say to feel free to critique, so here it goes.
I'd like to preface by saying that my purpose in responding is NOT to put down your work, but to better understand it. I try to be open to art and I feel like I'm pretty successful most of the time (however, sometimes I just don't get certain pieces of art, but even still I try to be objective). Here's a prime example. When I see this, I don't see art - I see a message being screamed at me and I don't know what it is; I'll go as far as to say that it leaves me disturbed - which if I were to guess, was your intent (or at least to evoke a strong emotion, which is what artists do, right?). In my opinion, this piece reveals an expression of anger and a desire to make a point, maybe of a rebellious intent. May I ask what message you are trying to portray?

my first inclination is to say I really don't like it... Bit I made myself look into it. But All I have to say other than your obvious painting ability is that you are yellling at the top of your lungs,screaming your platform and this might not be the place for you to do so. Maybe if you could just explain the why of this painting?????
