First time submitting a critique, so I'm going to try and be organized here:

Vision: I think the vision of this artwork is thought out really well. The fact that AJ is drawn from the side angle is very well thought out. It gives a feeling that she's being rejected, thus not facing the audience. Perhaps what would give you an even higher rating for this is to add some dramatic shading, and with the body facing more to the audience, and the head along turning to the side. If you did that, you get a feeling that she wants to be included, but she isn't so she turns her head.

Originality: I'm sorry, but, the piece itself isn't very original. There is a lot of pictures of sad ponies in the fandom, and this is no different. I have you 2 stars because the style itself is quite original. The cute earfluff and the stylized CM certainly bumps up the rating for originality.

Technique: The technique of this piece is done really well. I can ramble on about it, but the things that struck me most was the tears and the CM. The lineart is very soothing to look at with the differences in thickness. Although, the legs' anatomy is weird. Pony hooves aren't usually squared, and the legs should gradually get thicker, although this could be a style choice.

Impact: Vision is the biggest factor to impact, so you probably know what I'm going to say. The combination of the angle, the flopped ear, the extremely well done facial expression gives the viewer a very sad emotion.

Definitely not your best work, but this is really good as well! (btw I saw your confession so I'll do some critiques if I have time for your future uploads c: )
