Ray,
A very beautiful painting of the Christmas tree glass ornaments
sparkling in the light against the dark background. Created by your artist's eye for composition very skilful brushwork beautiful choice & application of your colours in bringing the glass ornaments to life on your canvas.

At first I thought this was a photograph of a trio of ornaments, this is just so cool! You did an excellent job of making these look transparent and three dimensional especially with the highlights. Love the different swirls inside each. Sorry I can't give you more than a 6!

Yo Ray this is super fine. I love and collect hand blown glass Christmas ornaments and I think this painting looks just like some of mine - Yowza!

The contrasting colors are just right in balance and counter point. The flat black background was an excellent idea it really makes the contrast show.

This piece is an all around excellent show and I am delighted by it... Bob

I LOVE this. The simple but effective way you used your colors is perfect, right down to the white shine on the bulbs. The black background really helps the glass bulbs to stand out. Thanks for sharing.

Hi Ray love the shimmer and swirls in your ornaments! You truly made them look transparent! Though I like your abstracts when I can understand them, I love it when you break out and do art like this. These ornaments look so cool! I think they're awesome! Very Nicely Done My Friend! Enjoy your six! You deserve it! :o) Nancy

    Hi Ray, I like the mischievous sound of laughter coming from the response of my review. You snuck some abstract work in your image and I didn't even know it! LOL I really liked the translucent qualities of your ornaments and their reflections. Very nicely done and a joy to view! Thanks for the lovely look! :o) Nancy

Perfect for this wonderful season. These three balls are beautiful and perfectly painted so impressed with how lifelike they look. I love the sparkles, glitter, and especially the strings for some reason. This is delightful.

Looking at the thumbnail I almost thought this was a photo, but instead it is a very lovely painting of Christmas balls. I especially like the all dark background, because it makes them stand out so well.

I also like the way you have used high lights to bring out such a fine shine in the ornaments. The color pallet is great, and I like the glitter effect inside the balls.

The tight framing has worked well, and the Christmas balls has got a fine placement within the frame. I think this is a lovely and well done painting Ray.
