Comment from Tony B


Thank goodness for the slow nights, we as reviewers benefit from the down time.
Good impact image, I think this would look excellent on a greeting card or perhaps a tattoo.

Comment from Proxima Niharika


A lovely, dramatic but romantic picture, so quiet and calm but so pretty and simple. I love the depiction of simple tenderness between the lovers--nothing too unsightly--just gazing at each other, silhouetted against a fiery sky--to symbolize passion(?). It doesn't have to be an X-rated show to depict true love, is my opinion, and that's just what's here.
Problem is, though, her head seems to be a bit too big in proportion to the rest of her body. Well, that's circumstances; after all, this is markers you're dealing with, not pencils. Otherwise--it's splendid. All the best! :) Proxima

    i know..thru this together in a matter of hours. should have put in reddish shading showing where the girls legs seperate and just didnt see the head till the end. however, u know sharpie markers r, its very hard to cover a mistake! i manage a few(notice i say few) most of end up in the trash! thanks for the review
Comment from ArtMist


lovely!!

i like the resulting effect using pointillism and the dark shadows of the two persons adds to the lovely impact

Comment from Raoul D'Harmental


Great work MK and thanks for the information regarding the sharpies. I really like this although the position of the girls' legs make her look rather squat! Thanks for sharing! R

Comment from garygb


Lovely colors. So vibrant. Really makes the silhouette of the two lovers pop (ironic to say pop when the subject is in black, but it pops). Nice job!

Comment from Jake'sstudio


A romantic side added to that impish and sometimes gentle cynical side of you, huh? Sometimes the simplest works are the most effective. I don't mean simple as far as technique as there is a lot going on here to make this piece work. I meant simple meaning at a glance and you get it. The viewer is not forced to work too hard. You have accomplished this here. A quick glance and one feels good about romance and caring and special moments remembered. Well done, Maestro! JAKE

Comment from suzannethompson2


This is a very effective painting with the figures silhouetted against the setting sun and crimson sky. I like the patterns created in the sky and water. Good luck in the competition!
