very cool cleo. the facial expression is great. the blend of color is great. the shading is great. the creation is balanced and eye appealing to the viewer. good eye and great job overall.

This is very lovely Cleo and so perfect for the Holiday, Happy Easter to you as well :)

I love the Gauguin Style of the Character, however I am not as crazy about the motion blur style of your background. For me it takes away a bit of the softness and the mood of purity that you lady evokes. However, not being an Artist, and certainly not having the talent to create such a wonderful painting, I stand in awe :)

Thank you for your kind review. I will think about your input. I admit Gauguin's influence, but did not think consciously of purity or Gauguin, just of Mother Nature in spring. I did not want any figurative background, but still splendid spring colors. I am always experimenting. That is what I came up with for now.

Comment from T.davisartsandcrafts
This is a interesting painting, the bunny and eggs look real good. Background colors are blended well. The right shoulder looks a little out of proportion.

Thank you very much for your review and your input. I did not attempt any realism or proper proportions but a contemporary view, based on styles of artist of the past, somewhere between Gauguin, Picasso, and Georgia o'Kneeffe.

Like the colors; the eggs are cute. Bunny needs a bit of work. Don't understand the background. Arms are a bit big. Take care. Keep up your artwork.

Thank you for your honest review and your input. The background is an abstraction of spring colors and wind. I did not attempt any realism in this painting including realistic human or animal proportion. The style is contemporary, influenced by artists as Pablo Picasso, Paul Gauguin and others.

This is so nicely done Cleo. And as today is Holy Easter, this is perfect for this season of Joy. I am not an artist and so I don't know what this form is called, but it seems so appropriate for the scene. Well done Cleo ~ Steve

Thank you very much for your kind review. I do not know what this form is called either, other than being Digital Art. I guess contemporary would be the closes discription.

Comment from jrconrad
So creative, so original, so interesting, this pic. is wonderful. The female figure suggests Gauguin but stands on its own. And who doesn't love an Easter bunny? Thanks for sharing this with us. Very nice indeed. Cheers, James

Thank you very much for your kind review. If there was a Easter contest for digital art, I missed the announcement and the deadline.

reply by Dick Lee Shia on 27-Mar-2016

I think it's a photo contest only...

reply by the author on 28-Mar-2016

Thanks for the Info, but I have no Easter photos, I guess it would be too late to enter anyway.

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
I love this. For its sentiments, its feelings. the tenderness of the subject matter. Lovely portrait painting with pleasant colours. Good effort!
