This surely looks like a Halloween scene. I like how you've used strong contrasting colors. Looks like your characters here are frolicking. Great drawing and painting techniques and this is an artwork with a story to tell.

A very wonderful visual presented here, Ray. And a very interesting story to go with it. Composition shades, tones colours and textures are beautifully done. Thank you for sharing this lovely piece.

The colors work really well with each other, and I like how the bright and dark colors complement each other, the shapes and shades work really well for this painting, keep up the good work.

    Dime, welcome to Fan Art Review. I can tell you are new, by the rating that you have given my work compared to the wonderful review you have given it. How does it work here, I will explain. If you like what you see in a photo or art, the general rating is 5 stars, if you really like it, a rating of 6 stars is appropriate. Any thing below these ratings is degrading 4 1/2 and below. You only get to use six 6 star ratings a week, use them judiciously. You don't have to degrade for minor things, you can just mention it in the review. If you really don't like it you can degrade it or just don't review it. You want to make friends here so, be kind. Everyone is competing for the top 5 spots in the categories (monetary prizes) or they are here to share their work. 6 stars are rare and are hard to come by. A 4 1/2 wipes out the value of 6 stars. I hope this helps you understand. Welcome and hope you enjoy your stay. Ray

The colors shown here are fine and rich. I do see the ghosts hovering through the marsh. The blue water ads to the richness of this submission.

Hi Ray, congratulations on this painting being recognised. "Midnight scamper" is a very colourful image with a lot of reflective qualities and I see the ghosts. Well done and thanks for sharing, cheers.

This is awesome Ray and such good use of your creative imagination. I see the ghosts hovering above the marsh, what's interesting for me is that I actually see the ghostly form of a long legged bird mixed in as well.
This is well created, I like the deep blue tones and the greens , there is a good sense of motion here as well.
Now when I visit the marsh I'll be thinking about the possibility that there are ghosts present !
Well arranged and presented!

Fine abstract art with vivid colors of blues, greens, slight yellows and the darks in the background and foreground. Fine creative and imaginative theme/title and the work in acrylics.

Comment from Jodi Kay


The blues in this piece are wonderful Ray. You really do a wonderful job in layering colors to draw us in to see more. The hazy cast on top really gives it the ghostly feel. Great execution!

OMG! Ghosts scare me. I recently got my third book titled "THEM'. It 's all about supernatural elements that haunt the earth. There are 13 short stories about ghosts. It's available on Amazon.Kindle $3 and paperback $10. You are most welcome to go for it. I have also 3 more books listed there. Both in eBook and paperback formats. I am getting story idea seeing your exciting artwork. Cheers!

    I am so sorry to hear you are afraid of ghosts, I thought a man of your engineering background of strength of materials, statics and dynamics, moments of force, fluid dynamics and enthalpy wouldn't be. Good luck in your literary endeavor and novel approach. The infomercial was very amusing, I was hoping for a review. I remember the good old days when we would compliment each other's artwork and reward with occasional sixes. I am glad that my art work inspires you and thanks for the cheers. Ray
