Thanks for posting more in the series. May I say I think the first one is more of a success than the second. If I had to pinpoint why my first impression would be that the second is overworked as compared to the first - on the first you knew when to stop, and the negative space really works in your favor. On the second one, it seem there's too much information.

Also, On the first I think the play of straight line and hard value is balanced with the right amount of soft edges and gradated textures. In the second there's less of that dynamic going on.

hope this is good food for thought.
