Interesting composition! The choice to use only two types of rhomboids within the piece lend's nicely into the final product looking very crisp, clean, and literally the sum of its parts. What's even neater is that because of your decision to work primarily with opacity and straight lines, you can see every detail in the positioning of each rectangle. As one observes this piece, you can get a clear and distinct flow upwards and outwards, following the lines of your tree. It really does feel like the shape and color sprouted out of the ground.
Creativity(10/10): I really love how you manipulate the texture and composition, while reproducing the original art style(impressionism&cubism). The work I reproduced was also monochromatic but your approach is really different and inspiring.
Execution(10/10): The outcome is beautiful and clean. And the specific techniques you utilized involve many thoughtful ideas. I think the techniques convey the intention of the reproduction neatly.
Context(9/10): As opposed to negative impression of the original Gray Tree, I feel your reproduction is somehow brisk and vivid. I wonder the context of your reproduction and how it is different/similar to Mondrian's.
Documentation(9/10): The introduction of the artist and artwork is concise. The thought process and techniques are well-explained. And I think it would be better if you include the original Gray Tree in your documentation. (I guess it is just a technical issue.)
The documentation is thin, but adequate. It’s a nice composition, but you could have given more explanation of some of your aesthetic choices. Why parallelograms and rectangles, for instance?
