    I think it is nice to see different expressions in characters so I appreciate that you played with features and angles with this one. I think I have some concerns regarding the anatomy so I would suggest using some references and shaping the whole body lightly before adding darker shadows (maybe next time!). I like the fact that he has many hands and they are all around moving showing that he is nervous, anxious or too busy while crying, makes you think that something might have happened to him. This is a kind of intriguing situation and I think that is good, keeps you thinking about this piece. It is a really intriguing piece indeed, I wonder why are they crying that much.
    The composition looks good, it is balanced and helps you take a look at the whole image, I only regret some of the hands look cut off. Also, I think adding some shadows to the water could help the composition. I know water is hard to draw, but you can think of it as layers of cloth so they produce a little shadow, specially when there is a big amount of it. Also, you could suggest that under the water streams there are shapes like the man’s body. It is not necessary to draw it all, but adding some details could help show that water is transparent.
    You usually draw intriguing scenes and I think that is cool, exploring other areas is interesting and I can tell you feel a lot when you draw. I can emphasize with that for sure, drawing without passion is painful, stressful and boring. Keep up the good work!
