First, the backdrop is lovely. I'm not sure what filters you shoved the stock through, but it really paid off. It's very sketchy (in an elegant way). Surprisingly, the man in the middle of it all, decidedly NOT sketchy, doesn't so much POP on top of this contrasting backdrop as he takes attention slyly. Your eyes are guided to him, but it doesn't seem sudden or striking. My only "critical" comment on the background would be that he doesn't look like he's settled into it, more that he he is floating above it. The upper body works fine (especially because of that beautiful shadow you got in there. Was that on purpose or an unexpected effect of the filters?), and the pose overall is wunderbar, but the legs don't seem like they're sitting on the steps. They look as if they've been pasted above it. I think if you had blended darker tones into the black pants and socks, slowly sucking the color away, perhaps even the hand on his knee, he would seem much more a part of the world he is in, and by leaving the shoulders and face untouched, he would still seem "angelic" compared to the black and white. Just my two cents.

The skull fits nicely on the vest; it doesn't look like it was slapped on top. I like the stitches. They're a nice touch. I do notice that the collar and shoulders of the vest have several sketchy lines which take away from its sharpness; I'm not sure if it's supposed to be the seem or if you were just experimenting with slightly different cuts, but watch out for that next time. (I JUST NOTICED the shadow in the arch of his left foot, our right. It's beautiful)

I'm amazed by the puffy sleeves. I struggle with those exorbitantly. Hands, also, are another issue of mine... but right here, lookin' at yours, I am AMAZED. These are some darn gorgeous hands, Candy. Keep it up!

His face is so beautiful I could just STARE. I love the gray color in his glasses, it gets the point across while remaining simple. I also love that you didn't cover up his eyes with them. His eyes are beautiful. In fact, that's some of the prettiest eye you've ever drawn. Beeeeeeeeeautiful. His nose is simple but elegant, his jaw defined, and of course the hair just takes the cake, as it always does in your artwork. Beautiful.

This face right here seems more even more real, even more pure than a lot of the other faces I've seen you draw. I'm not sure what it is that makes me say that, but I think you should keep this up if at all possible. It's just that fabulous.

As a whole, this piece of art is quite dreamy and sullen. The writing suits and I love the font (though I personally feel they could be a little bit bolder and blacker). The white through the arch is a nice touch, perhaps a nod to the heaven from which he fell? I like how the brickwork looks like a mix of light and dark, but mostly dark, just like our crazy, scary, beautiful world. It definitely conveys the feelings you're looking for and it's a beautiful concept. And I still love his face.
