Welcome to ProCritique
A critiquing group/service for artists

This group has been created for the purpose of helping out our fellow artists by way of giving professional criticisms to artwork. Our staff is available to handle all mediums and styles with the exception of Authored Works (ie: poetry, prose, fiction, etc). For Authored Critiques, we suggest ~WeCritique

News

We are fully operational, and are accepting submissions for critiques. Thanks to our critics, including our newer ones. Without you guys we wouldn't have a group. And thanks to you artists, because without you, we really wouldn't have a group.

Founder of ProCritique

---------------------------------------- --------------------------------------

Critique turn around time is between 1-3 days, at a maximum of 5.
If you do not see a critique for you work after 5 days, contact ProCritique and we'll find out what is holding things up.

Before submitting work, please read our Group Rules

1. Everyone who submits a work to be critiqued will be treated equally, regardless of skill.

2. No demeaning comments of the artwork or the artist will be allowed. This also applies from the artist to the critic. Failure to adhere to this rule will result in banning from future critiques or expulsion from being a critic.

3. If the artist isn't satisfied with their critique, they have a choice to have it re-done once with a different critic. Abuse of this rule will cause the artist to be subject to banning from future critiques.

4. If you mention something that needs work, please give a few suggestions on how to fix the problem.

5. Be as detailed as you can with the critique.

6. Do not just mention the problems with a piece of work, include positive notes about what is good along with the bad. If you feel you cannot include anything positive with a piece, give it to another critic for a fresher perspective.

7. Any work with questionable subject matter/social context may be rejected. This will include nude art of a blatantly pornographic nature, racial and sexual orientation hatred, or anything else deemed by the administrators as highly offensive. After which, a notice to DeviantArt will be reported.

*- Admins

Each critic has been chosen for style, attention to detail, and willingness to help other artists. Each are also artists themselves. Feel free to check out their work.

If you would like to become a critic or have a group to be an affiliate, send a note to ~ProCritique or ~darkartificer.

---------------------------------------- --------------------------------------


If you wish to have your work critiqued by a specific critic, send their name as the critic you most want for your work. If the critic is available, your work will be passed along to them.

Please Send Your Work In A Note To ProCritique, Not To The Critic Themselves

We request that when you submit a piece of work, place the title and the media it was done with. This will make it easier to give to the proper critic.

For continuity, here is a sample note for a submission:
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~

To: ProCritique
Subject: Submission

Body:

<insert your link>

Title- (name of your work)
Media- (ie photography, pencil, oil paint, etc)

Critic- (this is not necessary if you do not have a critic preference)

Disclaimer
An artist who submits artwork to ProCritique is to take critiques as constructive and honest criticism. As such, you may recieve a critique that has suggestions to improve your artwork. These are not to be taken as an offense, but as a suggestion on improvement. If you do not feel that you can accept an honest criticism, we suggest that you do not submit your artwork for Critique. By submitting a work, you have agreed to this disclaimer and the group rules.
