4. Nice work. I really like the third one with the Rays, and the fourth with the deep color.

Negative space in the fourth one is very good.

Take a look at paintings by one of my favorites, Caravaggio. The dutch masters like Vermeer also seem to have a knack for light. Both display passion for light, Caravaggio embraced the dark, Vermeer embraced the light.
