Ray,
for me this is stunning and really representative of the bayou.
I really like cool colors within the painting. How you have handled the different brushstrokes between the water, the land, and trees.
For me this is really an exceptional painting.
That should be promoted.
Lucien

Your acrylic is interesting. Although, it is an abstract artwork I can easily imagine a swamp in Louisiana. There are tall, slender trees above, with abundant, beautiful foliage which reaches onto the shore. The reflections below show the foliage sand the sky distorted. The colors are attractive. The tall format emphasizes the trees. The abstract artwork is well composed and framed. The composition is balanced.

Comment from FBI GUY


Having been in the Florida backwaters and alligator infested swamps, this is a beautiful artistic rendering of the Lousanna swamps. However, it still sends shivers up my spine with the thoughts of snakes and critters. However, back to the review. The defining edges of the water and reeds and swamp grass is clearly defined in my mind's eye. The shimmering water with shadows and lily pads are evident. The tall grasses and reeds move in he gentle breezes of the swamp's samp air. Cool scene.
