| All the best parts of this image are really subtle, like the echo of the mountain's curve in the elephant's ears, and the way the zebras play a background role. There's lots of movement here, too. Lovely piece. 10/3/2012 | |
| Awesome work, elephants are almost smile here. So many rich details. Very nice work 9/3/2012 |

| Wow, amazing picture. Nice composition and nice move by using black and white colors. Great work. 9/20/2012 | |
| This is a lovely shot, particularly in monochrome. While the architecture is quite familiar, what strikes me is the near-absence of human presence in the shot. A few indistinct figures in the lower left might be people, but it's impossible to tell for certain with a casual glance. An isolating p... 8/18/2012 | |
| It isn't really an origional.A photograph of a building, such as this one, can be the most beautifull and famous Photographs of all times. You just have to know exactly how to shoot it. That blaring light on the middle far right side of the photo is very unattractive, and he chose the wrong time of... |

| very cool, seperation of greys is outstanding 12/28/2012 | |
| Wow, so much going on here! The monotone palette really emphasizes the high technical quality of the draftsmanship in this piece. Those two strong diagonals (and several minor ones as well) are so powerful against all those vertical tree lines. Nice job with reflective quality of the water, too. 8/18/2012 |

| Good choice of colors. While they're too bright and sharp to look realistic, they're close enough to reality not go make this piece seem surreal. I think the colors really accentuate the realistic shapes, though, which explains the piece's strong connection to reality. A very unique take on the land... 9/25/2012 | |
| The creative choice to use supersaturated colors really works to bring out the individual details of the rocks, tree bark, and moss. I also like all of the vertical and diagonal interest that's happening here. 9/19/2012 | |
| This pictures makes me feel sad but with the hopes of something better with the colors of the stones. I believe in the powers of stones and carry some with me almost all of the time. Love this print. Sandy Burhoe |

| This is a lovely study in light and texture. The leaf surfaces and weave of the basket are particularly well done. The off-center composition works very well here with the strong diagonals of the shadow at left and the stems in the foreground. 9/19/2012 | |
| This painting makes me kinda sad. But it has realism about it. The light shades make it even more interesting and intriguing. Nice work 9/1/2012 |
Noble Powell IIITurnberry, The 10th Hole... |
![]()
| It takes skill to present a seemingly simple scene with such complexity of mark-making. The detailing in the clouds and weeds is exquisite. Nice to see a lighthouse scene where the lighthouse itself is almost an afterthought! 9/26/2012 | |
| The subtle shading helps show the contour of the green without making the piece too monochromatic. This is a truly lovely landscape with a lot of complexity: the water, ground, and sky all have their own shifting patterns and personality. 8/19/2012 | |
| I like the view on this picture, it expresses some kind of peaceful feeling. Would like to see it in the whole size. 8/19/2012 |
Noble Powell IIIThe Range |
![]()
| This piece really captures the energy of the range -- mid-swing or just leaning and waiting, and the spectators quiet in one corner. Just enough detail to bring it alive, but the focus stays on action and inaction. Very nice work. 9/4/2012 | |
| I like the slightly stretched look of the golfers in this, particularly the man on the left caught mid-swing; it nicely emphasizes both the energy of the motion and the fragility of the human figure executing it. I might have appreciated a stronger contrast in the green of the field and the green of... 8/18/2012 |
Mary McMenaminMusic Of The Forest |
![]()
| This piece are for surely taking its start from some fairy tale. Incredibly romantic composition, so many rich details. Few minutes are not enough to see all the beauty in it. Great work! 8/25/2012 | |
| This landscape showcases an incredible attention to detail, from the light catching on the flutist's hair to the texture of the geese's feathers. Even each tree in the background has a different branch spread and twists in the trunk, making each unique. This print is teeming with life. 8/16/2012 |
Mary McMenaminCozy Kittens |
![]()
| pr..... cute painting! They make such a nice couple. Good composition, nice choice of colors. Background colors work good here: light spot brings in focus on kittens, and dark spots are making a full contrast of a picture. 8/25/2012 |
Galina DatloofMusic by Moonlight |
![]()
| This is a supremely striking usage of limited colors. Even though the print seems to use only a few different hues and shades, it's not monochromatic, boring, or confusing. The repeated offset square shapes add yet another layer of complexity; this piece continued to engage me long after my initial... 8/18/2012 |
Galina DatloofTranquility |

| I love how you introduced modern geometry and color schemes into a scene pulled straight from the Middle Ages. Your use of color is really quite striking in that you've managed to create an interesting scene with several distinct parts using only a few colors. 10/16/2012 | |
| There's such an enjoyable interplay of elements in this piece, particularly the use of color and composition and the softening of geometric shapes. One can immediately see parallels with Picasso's famous works, as well as a touch of Matisse-like flattened perspective, even (perhaps) a touch of Romar... 8/18/2012 |

| This is nice portrait, i like the straight lines of the face and shadow lines. By focus being only on a face i understand that this is what is important here. Anyhow, great job. 9/20/2012 | |
| I really like the quality of mark-making in this piece. Bold strokes, simple colors, and more detail in the face as the focal point. The movement of the hair and fringe is also really effective. 9/4/2012 |

| This painting style applied to a mountain landscape transforms the image. It's reminiscent of a topographic map or the strata of millennia of rock layers. Somehow the effect both flattens the image and heightens the multilayered textures of the land. Really interesting work. 9/10/2012 |

| The detail given to the horse is greater than that given to any other part of the work, including the rider. This really makes the horse pop out as the focus of the piece, but I personally find the effect to be a bit surreal, which doesn't seem to have been the intention. 10/16/2012 | |
| I like the incredible level of realism that presented here, horse are looking so alive. Amazing colors, great work! 10/1/2012 |

| Very colorful work, looks like see world. There are many interesting details, and good use of imagination. 11/10/2012 | |
| This work uses bold, almost neon, colors to emphasize the lines and shapes of this landscape. What an interesting way to convey the vibrant life of the Southwest, which can sometimes appear monochromatic or dully colored to the casual observer. 10/8/2012 |
J. Everest FonnerThe Millinery Shop |

| The subject is classic, and the medium seems to freeze it in time. The contrast in textures between the canvas awning, greenery, and bricks is handled well in order to create interest. The emptiness and lifelessness of the image gives it a sense of pathos as well. . . 10/16/2012 | |
| This is a subtle piece, but one that makes you look closely at the details. The degree of realism is impeccable. I especially like how the texture of the canopy comes alive. 9/4/2012 | |
| Looks nice, lovely work of black and white colors. Very classic painting. Really adorable, won't add a bit to it, looks perfect as it is. 9/1/2012 | |
| good use of light and dark. Needs a plant or something that shows that people frequent the store. |
J. Everest FonnerAscending |

| It's a deceptively simple-looking image, but any artist will know how much skill and practice it takes to produce work like this. I love the interaction of all the verticals and diagonals in this composition. The subtle beam of light across the central pillars is a nice touch. 10/3/2012 | |
| Stunning black&white style. Lines and shapes are so nice. Great work! 9/1/2012 |
Robert DuncanThe Best Time of the Day... |
![]()
| I'm not sure whether the "best time of day" indicated in the title is early morning or late evening, but either way it makes a compelling scene. The variety of animals present in the image adds a lot of interest. I like that this image combines an active farm scene with a landscape in the background... 9/26/2012 | |
| You've managed to create a nostalgic scene without going overboard on the pathos. The soft light helps place the scene without overwhelming it with dramatism. The color balance is very nice as well; the girl's white dress fits in nicely, making her a part of the scene by connecting her to the livest... 9/24/2012 |

| There's so much happening in this image, I wish I could see it in person! I especially wonder if it's large or small, as that would seem to affect the overall impact on the viewer. Really beautiful detail throughout, especially in all the small details, such as the quality of light on the large open... 9/19/2012 | |
| I saw the original of this piece five or six years ago at WALLY FINDLAY GALLERY in Palm Beach, Florida right before they sold it and the web picture does not do it justice. Her technique and control are amazing for a water colorist. This piece is very large and has many small details that you cannot... |

| gorgeous sculpture, i can see every muscle on a horse body, this is really beautiful! 11/10/2012 | |
| I love how the stiff posture of the rider is mirrored in the horse's extended foreleg, caught mid-stride. I do wish I could see this from more angles -- a flat image is never very fair to a sculpture. Still, the visible details are impressive, from the musculature of the horse to the suggestion of f... 9/24/2012 | |
| The horse has beautiful lines. Mid step is captured perfectly, you can feel the tension of the moment just as the front leg extends and reaches for the ground. The ears are perked forward and the head is gazing down and forward. The rider has perfect control and is relaxed in the moment. It is a gor... 9/20/2012 |

| Nice piece, i understand this is Jerusalem and some old Rabie on its background. Interesting connection between those things. I like how all the details are done in this painting, very lovely. 9/29/2012 |
Benjamin ShiffHeavenly Jerusalem |
![]()
| The floating city is a scene straight from the fairy tales of many different cultures. I love the mirage-like quality you gave Heaven-Jerusalem, which I feel captures much of the spiritual aspect the city has for many people. Beautiful work. 10/27/2012 | |
| This is very nice idea, straight from fairytale but still nice, to connect Heaven and Jerusalem in such a way. I love all those rich details, and all that soft colors on the background. Nice work. 9/29/2012 | |
| A nice piece technically speaking. The feeling of suspension over a landscape is really well done, and I love the color palette. There's a sense of timelessness in this work. 9/5/2012 |
Alberto PancorboSueno de Amor |

| Interesting piece, looks like some classic painting but with a modern elements. All details are done well, and i love the mix with the background of mountains or it could be clouds as well.Great job! 11/10/2012 |

| Aside from the realism, which is particularly amazing in the shoulder and in the texture of the skin, this piece has a powerful emotional component. The overwhelming senses of loneliness of loss permeate the work. Beautifully done. 9/24/2012 | |
| This picture brings some kind of lonely feeling, but the way it is painted is incredible. Man's hand are looking so real, every single line in them is real. Interesting context, nice touch with a background, good work. 9/20/2012 | |
| Exquisite realism here--the hands and planes of the back are just right. You also did a lovely job with skin tone, and the gray background highlights that. There is some implied pathos here that makes this image very engaging. 9/4/2012 |
Robert BarrosZebras |
![]()
| Very stylized! 10/9/2012 | |
| I love this! The zebras' stripes, and the echoing lines of the tall grass, seem to jump out at the viewer. Great choice to have the zebras making eye contact with the viewer. 10/8/2012 |
Robert DuncanFarms Are For Kids |
![]()
| It's hard to go wrong with a well-crafted pastoral scene, but this one is especially engaging because of the distinctly modern clothing of the children and the fact that the child in the foreground is gazing directly at the viewer. The spread of cows and children in the composition offsets the dead-... 9/10/2012 | |
| This could be a scene taken straight out of my childhood on the family farm. You caught the spirit of it exactly -- the oversized mud boots the children are wearing are the perfect touch. 8/20/2012 | |
| This painting has some warm impression . It tells some sweet story about peaceful village, when kids and cows are interesting mix in it. Choise of a season is also very successful in my opinion. 8/20/2012 |

| Amazing sculpture, done very realistic. It isincredible how you could capture all the motion in one piece. Just amazing! 11/10/2012 | |
| This sculpture really freezes the motion and energy of a single instant. It might have been more dynamic if the musculature of the horse had been a bit more exaggerated, but as is the piece still feels very real. 8/16/2012 |

| The brilliant, unreal colors set this strongly in a fantasy realm. I love the contrast between the daytime clouds reflected in the water and the darkening sky above. This reminds me a bit of old Lisa Frank work, with a more surreal edge. 9/16/2012 | |
| This is gorgeous piece. I like your style. Same bright, and delightful colors. And nicely painted leopard. And of course a little trick in a picture, a game with reflection of clouds in a water and night sky in a background. I love it! 9/1/2012 |
Mal LuberStampede |
![]()
| So much energy is captured in this composition, it really lives up to its title. In particular, the horse at far right almost seems out of control in its frenzied galloping. Nice choice to put the viewer right in the path of the stampede! 9/26/2012 | |
| The detail put forth into distinguishing each horse gives this a sense of realism that would have been impossible to capture otherwise. At the same time, you've overlapped the sillhouettes of each animal to give the herd a mob-like quality -- you can just tell that they're panicked and uncontrolled. 9/24/2012 | |
| Gorgeous animals, painting is showing all their glory. All their muscles and lines, nicely painted shades and used colors. Very beautiful 9/1/2012 |

| This is a very engaging work, thanks in part to the choice of composition. Very nice realistic detail. Overall, nice work! 9/4/2012 | |
| I see you like horses. They are truly delightful. Nice piece, good choice of putting one horse in a front of a picture, so it will get all the focus. 9/1/2012 |

| I love the contrast of the shadows and the light bouncing off the dress and chair. The darkness of the room seems to enhance the contemplative nature of the subject. 8/18/2013 | |
| This promises to be an interesting piece. The pose of the model and dark shadows suggest a carefully-composed print. Unfortunately, this reproduction is so small that I feel a lot of detail is lost, particularly in the ruffles of the dress and in the shadowed areas. I'm simultaneously intrigued and... 10/14/2012 | |
| Posed portraits are so much more interesting when the viewer becomes engaged in direct relationship with the subject, and that happens here very effectively. This is a masterful handling of light and shadow, figure drawing, and composition. Really nice work. 9/5/2012 | |
| Such a sad lady in such a nice dress. Interesting color work, nicely painted. Too many dark spots on a picture ( at list thats what is possible to see in this little copy) , but it's working to create some curious atmosthere in the picture. Good work. 9/1/2012 | |
| Is it a russian school of painting? Too bad, I wasn't able to enlarge enough to see detail. Anyway, good brushwork, composition, colors and mood.www.NatashaKinnari.com |

| I love the setting and the landscape-style formatting used, but the size of the digital image is very limiting. I feel like online viewers must be missing out on a lot of detail (particularly with the addition of the large watermark). 10/14/2012 | |
| This piece intrigues me, and I wish I could see it more clearly--the small size of the digital file and the large watermark seem to hide a lot of details. It would be interesting to view this one up close. 10/8/2012 | |
| This is nice work, i like this point of view and fact that a picture a long, it makes it very beautiful. 10/1/2012 |

| This painting is raucous good fun! I love the explosion of jewel tones combined with the beautifully depicted realism of the figures and instruments. Great job. 10/8/2012 | |
| Amazing work, the action that is captured here is awesome. This piece transfers some great energy and a good mood. Nice work 9/23/2012 | |
| Wow!! The energy and colour just draws the viewer in.Particularly like the streams of colour in the background like the performers energy is pulling up and merging with one another. Very captivating. 9/1/2012 | |
| This really catches the energy of a live musical performance. Especially impressive is the interplay between the expressions of the musicians -- some glance at each other as though to check their timing, while the woman loses herself in the song, while the saxophonist seems to be looking out, trying... 8/16/2012 | |

| Really nice piece! It speaks and was painted very well. | |
| I love how the transparency of the figures in this painting work so well to create a sort of ghost town. I love the eerie light glowing under the carriage as though the carriage exists in a dusk scene when the sky painted in the rest of the piece seems to indicate that it is the middle of the day.

| near this time! i`n feeling very like drawing portraits 1/3/2013 | |
| A painting of two women? Or a reflection which doesn't match, and recall a memory? The woman in the background is obscured by something, though whether this is a window, mist, or simply time is not quite clear. I find the ambiguity to be fascinating. 10/14/2012 | |
| Interesting piece. From the first view i thought this is mirror reflection, but with looking on it closely i see it is a picture of two woman. I think this is very beautiful painting. 9/23/2012 | |
| Beautiful piece. Very well done. |

| This has a very classic and timeless feel to it. I love how you blended the oils -- I actually thought they were watercolors at first due to the softness of your lines. 10/12/2012 | |
| This is very delicate work, lady certainly is from another century. Your style looks very nice here, i like forms and shaped it created. Nice choice of colors too. 9/3/2012 | |
| Nice homage to some of the masters, between the painting style and the pastoral setting. Funny how there's almost a halo of light around the figure. It would be really interesting to see this composition executed in watercolors. 8/29/2012 |

| The technical skill of this realistic image is obviously quite high, but what makes it a strong image is the composition and the choice to blur out most of the background, keeping our attention on the horses and rider. Beautiful handling of light in what might have been murky overall. 9/19/2012 | |
| I like a style of this painting. Gorgeous horses, manly cowboy, an american spirit in it. By smeared colors on a background is understood that main subject of a painting is in a front, so eyes are not running all over the place. Very nice work 8/26/2012 |

| Strong picture, representing manhood. Dark colors and nounnecessaryelements. Nicely done! 11/3/2012 | |
| The cowboy seems to be an archetype rather than a human being -- his hat and posture conceal any identifying features, and even the background refuses to give concrete details. 10/14/2012 | |
| I really like the vertical composition of this piece, the muted palette and the choice to allow the cowboy hat to obscure the figure's face--he is not an individual so much as the role he plays. The blurred-out background and the lighting really allow the qualities of strength and fatigue in the pos... 9/10/2012 |
Paula VaughanAntique Roses |

| Interesting style, it seems like the vase and flowers are out of focus, this element makes this picture very soft and delicate. Nice color effect, good job. 9/20/2012 | |
| The delicate detailing on the vase and teacup is my favorite aspect of this piece. There's also something touching about the use of the same flower on the lady's hat as the ones in the vase. The blooms fairly burst off the canvas. 9/19/2012 | |
| The classic pastels really give this a retro feel. I like how you coordinated but didn't precisely match the shades of blue in the china and on the ribbon on the hat. This keeps it feeling real rather than cartoony. 9/17/2012 |

| This piece is very inspiring, so full of action! 10/9/2012 | |
| Amazing work, such realistic details. Colors and shades are nicely done. Bulls in a front are getting all the attention of a viewer, i like that. Also this picture are telling interesting story. 9/20/2012 | |
| This is a piece that has to be viewed closely for its full effect. I like the twist on a traditional Western scene, with the sense of danger and urgency created by the encroaching storm, and only the light of the lightning flash to convey what's happening. Very nicely done. 9/19/2012 |

| This is a masterful work in the technical sense, which clearly conveys the experience of the figures on horseback. The viewer really gets a sense of this downpour and how uncomfortable it must be. You did a wonderful job of hinting at the landscape without taking the focus away from the torrents of... 9/26/2012 | |
| Great use of pattern repetition and variation with the figures, into a a triangular composition. It fully engages your eye around the painting, landing on that ribbon of moonlight. You have a masterful sense of value, and don't need to use a full range of colors to make a high impact! 9/20/2012 | |
| Interesting context, greatly done details, very nice color use. Great job 9/20/2012 | |
| This is amazingly done. You've really caught the sensation of being caught in a torrential downpour. Looking at the painting, I can almost feel the sheets of water striking the ground and lashing at the riders and their mounts. Showing the water actually bouncing off the ground was the perfect touch... 9/17/2012 |
