It always amazes me to see your art knowing you used a sharpie. I love the colors in this drawing. The blue is so bright...and so is the green trees...the water falling over the rocks is amazing...thanks for sharing.

Comment from snowblaze


Well, well, the flower man gives us a bigger picture... so to speak. (I'm sure there are flowers in that scene -- wink.) While I do wish for more detail, I think this is a very nice. work. The 'staging' of the waterfall is quite interesting. Also, you chose not to place it in the exact center of the work --- always a plus.

Seen so many waterfalls on FAR just recently but all are very beautiful. Your work stood out for me because of the rich colours used. Did think this was a photograph when I saw the thumbnail. The water looks very impressive cascading down the rock face with is very craggie with lots of texture. Like the airiness you have managed to show in the foliage of the trees. The blue is the sky is balanced in the foreground by the blue of the pool. All very pretty indeed.

I think you should be, this drawing is very nice in its composition, the use of the media in this to me is spot on. I like the way you constructed the image, the blue from the water repeating in the sky brings a good balance to the drawing. The cliff and water fall have a nice structure and good visual flow. Nicely done drawing.

Comment from Life is but a dream.


I remember seeing this image and reviewing it before. Did you say that it hangs in your daughter's office? (good memory huh?)

I liked it then and I like it now a strong presentation well balanced with trees framing the waterfall, there is a really great flow to it and I don't mean that to be funny I mean that artistically the movement felt is balanced and not jarring in any way.

Was I right to remember that about your daughter having it on her wall?

wink

Comment from Dick Lee Shia


Me too, I hate blind contests as I'm half blind already--adding insult to injury!
I always see to it that co artists already recognize my posts in contests, blind or eyes wide open.
Who else in this world do your style?
I can always tell your artwork with a wink of an eye.
So be proud to Flood your name all over this falls...

Comment from MinoYasue


I thought this is a photography. The rock formation and structure is so photo realistic. The water movement in the fall has an animated feel in order to add strong movement. It is rare to see 100% landscape from you, but this has done really well which proves to fe you as a skilled artist. Thank you for sharing.

Comment from Aroruk17


You mean to tell me this was drawn? I couldn't even recognize that when I saw the picture. It seems like something you could find out in the natural world. It honestly had me tricked. This is amazing, your color flow is wonderful, from the shading to the contrasting colors. If you didn't win the blind contest then something had to go wrong with this. Be proud of it, it's hard work deserved.
