This is a beautiful piece of abstract art. The colors you have chosen here are working together so very well , this is visually pleasing , I see many different shapes and patterns , I even see faces and in parts there is a sense of motion. It's a wonderful piece to study , it's uplifting to view. I like the vertical format. Well presented!

    Pat, thank you for your review. From your comments I know that you have seen the underlying aspects of this piece. With my paintings I take you only as far as I have to, and the the rest is up to you. Nothing is distinct, just figments, shapes and color combinations.

Ok, I understand. There are many shapes that look like people or objects of sorts. But I cannot put a hand right on them. The colors are magnificent. Each roll into the other without damaging each.

    Photoman12, thank you for the review. I am not a realist, I take shapes, colors and figments and I present them with the least amount of detail, abstractly and the rest is up to the viewer to come to conclusions. Yes the shapes are the illusions. Sometimes there is no reason why, so just sit back and enjoy.

So interesting presentation of this abstract painting with a great texture and colors. Nice technique!
The colors are nicely balanced and the transitions are pleasing to view.
It up to the viewer to see something like autumn garden scenery or summer flower bed.
Pleasing full screen presentation Ray!

    Carina, thank you for the review. I am glad you enjoyed my work. I moved into abstract and I love it. Each work is a journey with no boundaries. I try to establish verticality, as I call it and create good over all balance, complementary colors, shape and value repetition.

    I reviewed your portfolio, you are very talented. You capture the traits of your subjects and you record them notably. I love the Lemonade Boy with the lemon yellow shirt, how aprapos. I love the Orange Sea reminds me of Moro Bay in California. Selfish Love is a very passionate piece, exceptional. All the best to you.

Wonderful explosion of colours in this lovely abstract painting. I love all the interesting shapes, too, created with your palette knife. Gets the imagination working. Great composition. Suzanne

    Suzanne, thank you for the review. Imagination is key. Every painting in abstract is like a journey that you don't know where you will end up. It always takes me to a nice place.

    Yes, I enjoy painting abstracts, too as you don't always know what's going to turn up! Suzanne

Really like the colors and patterns, the work from acrylic applied with a palette knife. The colors are so vivid. Like the middle up-top, middle greens. Really like the purples and yellows in particular, ones perhaps not scratched in places.

It's Really Cool,Ray!
It definitely has a 'Day Dreamy' sort of a look and that makes it a very enjoyable and nicely 'Out of the Ordinary' picture to look at!
