Hi Ray, I actually looked at other people's reviews for this and don't think I see someone looking back at me. There is one place where I think there is half a head with one eye looking out but that's all I see. .... What I do see is an underwater scene with a turtle. He's just to the left of where I see the eye. I can see this neck sticking out and his turtle shell. It's the way you painted this that makes it feel like it's underwater. The painting has that watery blurry look that one sees if they open their eyes underwater. I swear I see the plants, the pond's bottom and even a glimpse of the water surface. Guess I see things in a different light. LOL Anyways, I thought it was very interesting! :o) Nancy

Right below that turtle is the eyes, below that is the nose and then the red lips sit back from the screen as if someone is looking in too. Sorry you didn't see it I thought it was almost evident. I tried to create a 3d effect. Any how Nancy thank you so much for your great review. I love water and this is my world. You got it right this is underwater. Once you see it, you will chuckle.

Oh my goodness! I can't believe it but I actually just saw the face in the tiny image that came with your reply. I don't know how I missed it! It's very obvious
! I guess if it's right under your nose
you seem to go blind! LoL Very cool! Your camouflage job was amazing!

Another really great creation on your part. I love nature and this just speaks to me.
The brownish soil contrasted with the lush vegetation speaks nature. Each of us can see what we want, which makes your style so interesting. Well done my friend.

Allan, thank you so much for your wonderful review, Rating and thoughts. If you look at the middle of the painting you will see someone looking at you from the other side. I am so glad you enjoy it. Ray

Ok, I felt there was something looking at me when I posted the review. I could not see it then and I might need some help now also. : ))
-
Hi Allan, maybe i can help you find it. Find the center, the two small scraps of paperright below that is the eyes keep going down and you should see the nose and mouth. It helps if you look at it from a distance. You will know it when you see it. Enjoy Ray.

lol, now I can't unsee it. No wonder I thought something was looking at me when I reviewed your post. : o )

Devonte, thank you so much for your great review. I am so glad you enjoy this. Did you notice the person dead center looking back at you?
Comment from Brendaartwork18
Its a lush world that can seep me in imagination. A forest or a jungle or maybe a city park. It could be under the ocean. I think I will go with the last one. Creatures roaming in the sand and coral floor...exotic sea grasses and seaweed float and hide mysterious swimming "things"....in your strikes I can see movement that suggests water currents, liquidity...sunlight seems to reflect on to the more exposed parts...yes it is a sea undrworld. Love it. Love the colours love that it makes me a story.

Brenda thank you for your amazing reading of my world. There is someone looking back at you from the far side. You got it right, liking it to a fish tank or a nautical fare. I am glad I could share this with you, My World. Ray

You are welcome. I am having another look for the someone looking back :)
Comment from Jewell McChesney
Ok Raymond, you are very clever, sneaking that face in there. Your world is out there or is it in there? This is another fascinating piece of abstract Ramondism. My new word, haha.
I even see a ballerina jumping out of the hiding man's imagination. And I haven't smoked a thing today!
Hope I made you smile.

Yes, you have made me smile. Did you see the person peering in from the far side? The eyes are dead center. You have coined my style, I cherish that. This is the type of illusion I love creating and sharing. Jewell your review has made my day. At the very least, now you can toke up and enjoy. Ray :)

Maybe it is an underwater scene and someone is looking back at you from the other side, just a hint. Thank you Brian for your thoughts. Ray

Elisabetta, it is nice to know that you enjoy this abstract. When I paint, I feel like it is an unguided journey where things just appear and it is my choice to embellish it or not and thats the joy of abstract. Your review is my reward and it is well appreciated. Ray
