Nice work Diane, but Im sorry to say not one of your better pieces,The trees and sand are good but as for the sea and sky i know that you can do better,I love the idea behind this piece,maybe you could try and revamp it from scratch.Sorry to be so blunt on this Diane but I think Ive seen enough of your work to know how much better this piece could be.
Thanks for sharing.

    Its not always easy to do pictures i dont think any way , maybe one in future you might be able to do something similar and it,ll get GREAT reviews.
    We all get to the point of pass sell by dates...LOL so why should a picture not be the same or anything else come to that...LOL
    Think ive gone into waffle mode..lol
    I must admit im haveing awful time tryin to produce work just lately so i just keep trying to get something together but failed so far,think we need to take a total break and start again fresh as i find that works sometimes.
    Take care Diane.

Comment from cleo85


You will hate me. Here I am with my criticism again. The Idea is a good one and everything else is fixable. Good thinks first. The forest is excellent. The beach could man be a bit darker at nightfall but is fine.The couple is OK, but there is a odd black line, like an arm to many between the man's arm and his body. Maybe it's her arm, but she appears to have that arm near her body. When I see that right she stays in front of him, both looking at the ocean? The shadow in the water looks odd too. It seems to be the shadow of one, not of two people. I think also the shadows of rising moon would be longer. The sky seems to have a wrong kind of blue. I think it needs to be darker about the blue of the darker parts in the water. Sorry, but that is what I think.

    thats okay cleo you have the same opinon of just about eveyone who has viewed this one including me LOL. I wasn't real happy with this one either, just had to post something , maybe I'll let my grand daughter post another for me LOL
    thanks for your honesty its always refreshing. I'd rather have someone give me their honest opinon instead of writing the same thing, shows that they really aren't looking at the painting at all, at least I can tell you realy pay close attention to my work and that makes me feel pretty darn good that you'd take that kind of time to help out another artist.
    thanks again cleo.
    with all the advice I've gotten on this piece I was just going to let it go, but I might just give it another try.
    thanks again

    Give it another try! The idea is really good and I think you could fix it upp to a really good picture. If you do it again move the moon a little more to the middle. It is not really necessary but I think it would look better.

    Good!!!
Comment from Sam S


This is a great landscape piece. However, the silhouette of the couple is not natural. The moon does not look natural. Too big. I do like the colors. Good artist notes. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from Angelheart The First


Being honest and keeping it real,this is not one of your best works.The bushes are too full depth wise,the perspective of the moon is off
and the couple dancin is very rough looking.Glad you don't like it yourself...

Comment from amfunny


I like the trees in this. I think your moon is a bit big and low and the sky is too blue as you mentioned. The black spot is distracting also.. was it supposed to be a shadow? The idea is a good one though and it has lots of color so all is not lost.
