I like this a lot, very full and the designs are wonderful - they fit well. The colours and patterns flow with the picture, nice light and balance. Good composition and pretty presentation. Always. H.

Comment from Dazzleme


This is very lovely. I love the silhouette of the birds and the cactus supposedly against the sun. The overall image is presented well and the use of the digtial art has worked well for you.

    Would you believe that this image is only 450 px high? Why it is showing in such a vast manner is beyond me...lol. Thank you, Dazzleme, for the great review!!

Very neat composition. Like the design. The oval to the left of the cactus with the sun adds lots of interest. Foreground area shows lots of interest also. Very colorful and compliment each other well. Good presentation. Well done.

I really like the bold, bright colors in this piece. The silhouettes of the birds and cactus are the finishing touches. Nice job!

Oh, I love this! The warmth just radiates - makes me want to go to Mexico or anywhere warm. The colors are wonderful and the scene seems to just vibrate with life. Nicely done!

Comment from shiloh106


The colors and textures in this work are lovely. The lighting is great, looks very natural and produces a strong fell of early evening for me.
This work also looks like more to me. I don't know if it was intentional or just my actic imagination, but I see a woman in this work.
The lovely orange waves are her hair. the birds her eyes. The sun her face. The cactus is an earring and her mouth is behind the green hill. Cool abstract.

Love the vibrant colours, the rising sun adn the birds in silhouette are a nice touch. At first I though it might have been an abstract egg!!! Love it well done

I love this shawn anbd the colors are bold,beautiful and really do a good job at capturing the attention of the viewer.The heat waves from the sun show the heat of the desert and the birds give the painting a special touch.I am lost as I cannot figure out what is in the lower left corner but I can say that I do love the colors.It's a bit small but that doesn't take anything away from the artistic background.
Love this,great job!

    Everytime I upload anything larger than 550 ht., I makes it really large in the view new art page. The one of the grapes is 550. Look how big it is. This one is only 500, and it is coming out too tall except for on the viewing page. Why does it do that? I thank you so much for the review, Angel. The original of this is 700 ht. HELP! lol

    You're welcome! First question,do you have a PC or a MAC? Because I put all of mine in at 800x600 and never have a problem.If you have a MAC you might want to ask Tom because I know nothing about them.
