No "technical criticism" is warranted. You're either a natural or have had some good training already, which is going to put you in great stead as you begin your studies in Columbus. Your command of drawing and paint, at "your age" (says this elder fellow), is enviable. I especially note your sensitivity to the presence of both warm and cool colour in the flesh tones, something that many painters don't "see" for a very long time. You use lots of paint, and you're obviously able to put it down on the canvas and then leave it alone, a talent I'm still trying to develop. Looks like you've got quite a career ahead of you. If you don't find what you're looking for in Columbus, keep looking.

Best wishes,

Steven
