I like the fourth one. It's very expressive and the style looks amazingly unified for two artists to have worked on it...

My one recommendation for change would be to make the background in the seco ...

Well, I'd have to disagree - I went to Ringling's Portfolio Day and got nothing but "Draw more from life."

Now, I could've dealt with that advice if there was something else in the way of constructiv ...

The reason they couldn't expand a single building is that there are historic buildings all over the place, so ...
