A pretty colorful scene. Great display of lines and textures. I bet the effect of the sunset lights in the water has created a bit of an abstract scenery, too. A pleasant sight.

    Thank you Soul for your wonderful review and comments,
Comment from Hailey Caine


Wonderful use of color and abstract space. A bit difficult to make out at first, but in the world of art, nothings against the rules, and that could entirely be the intentional stylistic choice in which case, brilliant!

    You are new, I can tell by your rating. Usually if you like the piece, 5 is a good choice, if you really like a piece 6 is a good choice. You probably don't understand but 4 is degrading and will reduce an overall rating. 6s are hard to come by and a 4 wipes it out. This is my style I am guessing that you like the painting but the 4 wipes out the 6 that I just got. Ray

    Ok. i thought we were actually supposed to rate as we believed, not based on site politics and making sure the artist had the stars they wanted. My bad.

This is one of my favorites I have to say. I love the texture of this how the horizontal brush strokes imitate the water and the vertical the trees. Wonderful work.

Can see the pond and trees overhanging the pond but struggling with the sunset thing Ray,your work though is so colorfull and quite unique i would say even if i do struggle with some concepts you throw in but your work does require concentration as such...Brian

Comment from Brendaartwork18


Very very colourful and yet quite soothing. It reminds me of Monet and his garden. There is an illusiveness about it. The colours are appealing and the random quality if abstract suits this so well

Another good jungle image posted here! Your fine and classical composition offers us an enjoyable view of that pond and its location. Textures, colours and tones are good. Nicely painted!
