This to me looks like a forest that is closing in on the people in the garden, A supernatural image, that is both disturbing and interesting.

    Michele and I thought the people were spreading out through the back yard. Thanks for your Review and if you see a supernatural image It's OK as long as it doesn't look like me. :) Ray

Comment from Kathy Banich


I really like the composition of lines and color in this piece. Not sure, but I swear I see an eye watching me in this abstract. Leaves and stems, seemingly come together to create a very thought provoking, intriguing Acrylic. Good luck in the contest Ray. :o)

Comment from suffolkbrian


well painted as usual from you Ray but unlike the last one i reviewed do find this one a bit confusing [more so by the title] but full on abstract so perhaps explanation is not needed....Brian

    Brian I guess I am going to have to explain this one. It is a Summer time contest entry. The title is Back yard party, the kind you have in the summer time. The painting is abstract but is a whole bunch of people at a party in the summer time, plain and simple. You need to understand the clues in order to understand the paining. I am sorry this one confused you. Ray

Great acrylic paint on paper Ray. The mix of yellow, green and red works well and looks like this backyard party was a lot of fun for all. Well done and good luck in the contest :-)
