@AZ, thanks man, the abominiminiinminable was getting tired from cheering

this volley, #9, is beautiful, well played pulling all elements together including the use of
armin’s lettering as a signature for Marian. color has come back to a cohesiveness with the focus on teh tenis aspect, great work.

“All eyes are on Armin now, he’s gotta feel pretty alone out there…maybe less IS more. As the crowd looks on, looming, the question arises, ‘What’s he got left in the bag?’”

i really like what she is doing, her curves and flourishes have added a feminine feel without being girly. the fluid lines in stark contrast to the linear and cold background makes the white area almost seem warm. my only crit would be the carry-over of the red spirals, the color (in this context0 jumps on me and drives 16 penny nails into my bones.

i like the butterflies in twhere they are used, masking them almost comes across as caging them, locking them down. i thought that was the best element armin used in volley 2 and now it has been ‘put away’

very interesting.

COMMENTARY:

...and the crowd is apparently not liking the last voley. They seem, no wait, the HAVE actually turned their backs on the court. this does not bode well…
