[TheQuaker]

Here is my first art tell me if you think its half decent. i made it in like 15 minutes with a mouse on gimpso its not great but what do you think.

[Wivernryder]

I think if you're goin to post here you should spend more than 15 minutes on it.

[bigjonny13]

So what am I critiquing?
A gradient background, a solid coloured plane and a bunch of wispy strokes....

[TheQuaker]

I notice the sky, the colors you did in blocks of straight lines. what you should try, is do a few colors, two or three, in blocky sections of sky, like, towards the horizon the sky is lighter than furthur at the top of the horizon, so, color in the horizon in a block color, and the top in a block color, and then find a color somewhere in the middle of the two, and pick a spray option, and spray lightly until the colors blend together and look more smooth and realistic.

also the grass, you should put a little more definition into, and yeah, add more stuff to it.

What you have here is pretty useless, the ground is too curverd and you haven't spent enough time on it. IF you post anything else in this thread make sure you've spent at least an hour or two on it.
You should get a picture of a landscape, import it in to the program, sketch the outlines over it, delete the image and then try and create the landscape based off your sketch. That way you'll be able to learn how perspective and stuff works a bit more.

I like the background but the land leaves something to be desired. Maybe have someone doing something on it next time?

Umm the background really isn't that good. It's not realistic looking and is just a gradient that can be done in a couple of seconds.

[Fifty-50]

It lacks interest. I mean what's going on here? Is it just a background that doesn't have any story into it. Plus your craftsmanship isn't that good either. You should blend the gradient background in order to remove the "pixelyness". Plus refine the shades of grass and use different shades of green.

Okay I think this is much better than the last one i spent about an hour on it its still a work in progress but just tell me what you think of it.

[Re2deemer]

I'm going to avoid posting anything until I know what you're trying to do here.
A.k.a what work in progress?

[gmanthesandwhichking]

Okay, so, I really don't know what you expect people to say when you have only submitted a grass plane with a sunset, and an eyeball in front of pure blackness, so I will hereby refuse to post any critique until you post something showing your REAL talent. So spend some more time on a picture before posting it on the art BBS or your going to get nothing but bad critique and spammers, trust me, i know.

You did not spend an hour on this. I could draw the same thing in about 15 minutes. It would also look nicer.
