The colors here are so pretty , the grandmother with the herbs in the golden pot that she carries up on her head, the grand daughter looking up to her as returns with the herbs. I like the way you show the golden sun behind the Grandaughter and I like the way her dress matches the color of the sun.
This is very well created and presented!
It's a wonderful entry for this contest. Best wishes to you!

    your welcome

This seems an usual day in the family of modern day Toltec descendants. While the granddaughters dress looks machine made and fashionable, the grandmothers close looks more traditional. The herbs indicate that both prefer traditional medicine and food. Due to the colors, the painting has an overlaying mood of happiness. The artwork is well composed and framed.

Very cool and colorful. The body forms and language is great..the facial is good. The details is great..the blend of the colors is great. The depth is great. The shading is good but I do recommend some shading at the feet to plant them on the ground..unless they are floating? Wink wink. Still this creation is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and great job overall

    Thank you very much Mark. Yes, I tried to put in some ground under their feet but it looked less like a textile when I did. Ah, perhaps a few lines of grass would do the job!

good use of the primary colours using the digital software.The composition is interesting with a variety of shapes in the background as well as the woman with the pots patterned top

Very nice digital art. Smooth gradations and great detail. Good job! The shading on the skin tones and clothing is seamless. I would of liked the same treatment on the gradation of the light being given off by the sun.

    Thank you very much! It would be easy enough if I did not tried to make this look like a textile. kind of an experiment!
Comment from mamamary


I like it! The bright colors of what the women are wearing are beautiful! I believe the girl should be offering to carry the basket the rest of the way for her grandma. The muted background really helps the color pop!
