Hahaha! I find this really fantastic piece of art and the sense of humour . For some reason it reminded me of Gandalf ( you know... Lord of the rings! ) Really good! You have my six stars

    Thank you Ellir for the fine review and the generous rating. So glad you enjoyed the painting. It must be my beard that reminds you of Gandalf.

Lol! Ray this is an excellent work that has brought a huge smile to my face!! I love the layers of of interest and your thoughtful gaze as you contemplate the offerings on FAR as you earn points. Totally relatable and funny too because we all do it!! Great work, thanks for sharing!

This is very interesting, Ray. Reminds me of how I feel when I get that swapped overwhelmed feeling in trying to keep up with reviewing for those needed points and pumps. I admire your imagination.

Hi Ray, I must say this is completely awesome, there you sit reviewing the artwork and photos on far in order to get enough points and cents to post and promote your work. That's just how it works!i love the touch of humor as well as the way you picture yourself sitting there studying each photo or piece of art! Love the colors and the way you have given yourself that white beard!
This is so well arranged and presented!

    Thank you Pat, for this wonderful and thoughtful review and such a generous rating. This is something we all have in common and mostly everyone goes through it without mention. So that was the motivation. I am glad that you enjoyed it and picked up on the humor. Ray.

This is a great work of art. Very imaginative making a selfie as part of the work.

I really like the semi abstract nature of this one.

I can relate to reviewing others' works to get points and money in order to post. I always spend some time reviewing the posts that offer a 25% chance of getting a member cent pump. Sometimes I get 4-5 in a single sitting once you know what to look for in the posting. Hey, what ever works.

Nice work ~ Steve

Comment from Browncat


You look like an explorer lost in the woods in October. Exquisite! Deep and rich colors---the art reminds me of crushed tissue paper that's been dampened and then painted.

Haha!! Ray!! Yes I see you aged trying to review as many coined pieces as possible to earn enough MONOPOLY money to promote your own.
I like your humor and your selfie surrounded by your abstract beautiful painting.
Well done Buddy ;)

    Thank you Tracey, for this wonderful review and generous rating. I'm happy that you enjoyed it. I tried to relate what we do day in and day out, and how it has changed my everyday routine and probably the routine of everyone else involved. Thank you again. Ray
Comment from JirinaInspire


Very impressive painting and it does shows your features so realistic.
It looks like an abstract old painting of the masters in Italy or France.
Optimism shows in the colors selection and great balance of warm and cold colors.
Wonderful artwork!
