i love the luminous quality of the different blue hues. theres a real depth to the photo as your eye is drawn towards the darker central area. i also like the way you are suggesting abstract fish shapes. theres so much movement. an excellent job!

Lovely cool blues in this abstract of the fishes below. I like the black outlines of the fish and the diagonal lines. The design kind of reminds me of a batik print. Very creative piece. Thanks for sharing.

This is great, love the depth and feel you have captured here, all the creatures and fish are excellent along with the different shades of blue, lots of movement and life and very reflective, great expressive abstract art, i love it.

Comment from Janrique


This is gorgeous. You seem to have such skill with many different types of art and create them at such a rate! The blues and the light and shadow in this are wonderful and I love the sense of movement and all the little fishy shapes really finish it off well.

This is an extremely interesting mixed media photograph with plenty of excellent detail. Colour and focus are also excellent. You have captured every important detail and the composition is very good indeed. A slight reservation is the chunky blocks which slightly impede the movement of the fish

    You mention mixed media photo, so I had to check to see if I listed it wrong, but no, it's correct as digital painting. And I'm not sure which chunky blocks you speak of, but I will take another look at the larger version. If you mean the light blue, that's part of the sunken ship. If you mean the larger striped areas, that's easier to fix. I want to thank you for taking the time to review this, and thanks for the tips, John. I appreciate it. :)

Interesting work of duality and unity. Nice blue hues and creativity. Lacking in a real focal point, busy, but you have made it work. I want to see more. I think you may just be tapping at the edge of this adventure.

I think this is very creative and colorful.
I love the fish :-)
Your attempt at the deep blue sea worked out well here.

Comment from Joe Renaud


This piece has good depth and great creativity using both straight and unconventional lines. Images are clear and imaginative. Gives the appearance of floating within the depths of water. Even background structural mid section goes well within this piece.

Comment from bunkie


Abstractive, graphic marine life and sunken ship are marvelous. Enjoy the sense of depth you have created through the tunnel affect you created and how the light shines down and reflects. All elements very, very nice in your sea scape. Thanks so much for sharing.
