| I' m not able to make a good critic , but the piece that i prefer is Passage de la vie .In my opinion all your works tell us a story .Brava and thank you for your critic :-))) | |
| yep this one took long time to be created. some times I have the picture in my head some times it come during the creation , in this case it was a mix. and you don't have to spend time for translation, it's ok I can read English, do its funny to read the computer translation :) | |
| You have beautiful work. This piece seems to tell a complex story and must have taken you forever to create. I really like the contrst at the bottom with the use of the blue colors. It gives the work a floor. Do you know what you are going to create when you go to a canvas? Is everything in your hea... | |
| very kind of you , Just wondering... may I know why this art work got 7 from you, the lowest mark you ever gave to any one over here? | |

| Hi Jessica, I like this painting...Really excelent! Greetings! SPSoni | |
| Thanks for all of your posts... I went out of town for a couple days and was sans internet. I was a bit surprised to see all the action on the CC. I'm not quite sure how I got put into to all of this but whatever...Thanks for all of the comments they were terrific to read and reassuring. Jess | |

| Subtle Compliment. | |
| You remind me a little of the famous Russian master Atroshenko.My compliments! | |
| The lighting is is very realistic. I love it. | |
| Looked through some of your work after a friend referred me.This one made me say Whoa! Different styles in your portfolio but I haven't ever seen anything quite like this before. Interesting technique with the colors and contrast values. | |
| There is a real sense of a moment captured in time and emotion! Beautifully painted. |

| Another great piece Jay, Espescially the center figure.the superimposition of the figurine works extremely well. You are extremely talented,you really should try to get an art agent.I think you would be very successful. Sincerely, sgalli | |

| Gorgeous work, looks like you really knew what you been doing. I like that every detail on this picture has double meaning, and slowly transfers to something else. My eyes are running from one end to another, so there are so many things to see here. Beautiful piece. 9/27/2012 | |
| This piece succeeds on many levels. The composition, texture, and palette work well together. The sense of a strong light source is really effective. The fantastical element of implied symbolic relationship between the bird and figure is very intriguing. Nice work! 9/5/2012 | |
| This piece caught my eye as the colors are vibrant and the suject matter is delightful ! 6/18/2012 | |

| I didn't join in CC for a long time, and it was a pleasant surprise to see your comment! This painting stands as one of my favorites since I painted it and it was nice to hear of new impressions. Have a happy New Year and lot of inspiration! I wish the same and to all people of d'ART! Eva |

| Wow, this painting can be interpreted so many different ways and says so much! It has a lot of feeling. Looking deep into this girls eyes you can see her eagerness, determination, and sincerity. I really love it! Fabulous work! | |
| This is a beautiful haunting expression and painted with talent! | |
| Thanks for your thoughts on this work very much. | |
| I really like this piece, Michael. I love how you can almost feel the heavy emotion reflected in her face and eyes. | |
| I just want to say that it's one of my favorites of yours. Not just the eyes but the mouth...and the mood of the piece---lots of emotions here. |

| Nice portrait, looks very lovely. Great hair, in color of fire, i also like the fact that you painted even a light that fall on her head, that add the whole different colors to the picture. Great work. 10/1/2012 | |
| There is technical skill here, but there's also a lot of emotion, and the two aspects together make this an amazing painting. The choice to capture all of the nuances of color in the hair really brings it alive and strengthens the composition. Very nice work! 9/5/2012 | |

| This looks like fantasy concept art for a surrealistic video game. I love the sequence suggested by the repeated figures. The choices of color are also great -- the blues are rich to the eye and allow for a large amount of detail without being overwhelming. 8/24/2012 | |

| This is mystery photo, it thebeginningi thought it was some kind of columns, but now i see this is part of some object. By the title i see that sky was an idea here, but by choosing black and white colors, sky do not have any impact on a viewer. But i love your point of view 11/10/2012 | |
| I could stare at this photograph all day long. The composition, positioning of the shadows, it is perfect. 3/13/2012 | |
| The other visitors on the roof at the time clearly thought I was some kind of nut for pointing my camera at this when one could see the whole of Nice in panorama from close by! And the roof is also littered with artwork by the likes of Yves Klein. david: ) | |

| Very nice work and use of color David. 4/13/2012 | |
| The original upon which this is based was a large piece painted in watercolours on heavy watercolour paper entitled 'Totemic Head'.

| Love the mirror effect. Is the mask computer generated or from a photo originally? I have a small collection of Balinese masks - it never occurred to me to use them in Photoshop but they would be great to work from. Thanks for the idea, David! | |
| This is a personal favourite of mine, in part because of the strange story behind the final image. davidB: ) | |
| The original, which was very large by my standards (A2 sized) watercolour on heavy watercolour paper, was sadly lost in a change of address. All I possessed for may years was a treasured photograph, taken through glass and at an oblique angle (to avoid the problem of flash-back). Many years later th... |

| Lovely painting, it has very interesting style, and so many great details. Looks like it wants to show some deeper meaning of thing, sort of looking through mask on the world. 8/18/2012 | |
| I love how you subverted expectations of perspective -- we're forced to look through the "wrong" side of the mask's eyes. Coupled with the romantic, Victorian-esque aspects of the painting, this makes for a dynamic viewing experience. The lighting effects are curious. I can't tell if the only source... 8/16/2012 | |

| I do not have any software that was written after the year 2000 Most of my work is done on ACDSee Version 3.1 for Windows released in 2000, Arcsoft's 1999 PhotoImpression programme (both of which came free with my HP 4400c scanner software)plus an old Word 97 PhotoEd programme. The most sophistiate... | |
| Thank you David,What does it means "primitive programme?...." Pnina | |
| I confess that I do not know what the PS lab is, but I can say that it was done entirely by me in my studio, if that helps..... David: ) Ah, having thought about 'PS lab' I assume that you mean Photo-Shop - in which case no, I do not possess programmes of such power. I use more primative programme... | |
| David, is it processed in the PS lab ? Original, Pnina | |
| I get some very strange looks wondering around photographing in odd and neglected corners of airports and other public spaces. I can see myself getting arrested one day if I am not careful! David |

| Excellent!, this is one of my favorites from your works Jay. | |
| do you think that "hardware and software" be a good reason for your friend condeart to push you up on the top at the expense of Patrick Agcaoili's "On thin ice" that he pushed down just to favour you? I saw also that you changed back immediately the favour to him, giving to the works he posted 5 5 1... | |

| I love the colors, very interesting mix. I do not really see the treasure here, but i guess this is veryindividuality, everyone can see here what is he most close to. I can see here some kind a animal, i thing.This all that, it is important what kind of mood does this picture transfers, and looking... 10/29/2012 | |
| The bright colors give the piece a sense of childish excitement. The half-hidden hand reminds me of a child digging through a toy chest, or a pile of sand, eager to show off the favorite toy or beautiful shell hidden earlier. 10/27/2012 | |
| This is one of those paintings that must be more powerful in person, when you can clearly see the marks of the brush. I'd love to know the connection between the image and its title. 10/3/2012 | |
| I like this race between the jump the shark ezxarvaganta and the fixedgear apocalypse, there wasn't even a mention of this event being a sign of the coming apocalypse. refreshing, but counter productive to shark jumping. 3/9/2012 | |

| Je voudrais avoir cree cette oeuvre, Felicitations | |
| The soft lighting stopped me in my tracks! | |
| Thank you very much Luke! | |
| I enjoy the contemplative feeling of this work. It makes me wonder what or who you are looking at. The way the arms and hands are placed lightly on the wall is nice as well. Great work, stay inspired! | |
| Thank you so much Snidaruffe and Jaxon! |

| Yes this is indeed a reference to modernity in the angled surfaces of both the old and new Louvre. And the sepia colouring was intended to accentuated that aspect. Many thanks for inspiring it! david: ) | |
| Firstly upon my initially seeing this work and secondly when I realized the sam of which you were speaking is myself. Your comment is a very special moment for me and worth more than any monetary returns I may recieve from my efforts. This image just blew me away and how the angular reference to mod... | |
| I love this one David, wonderful! | |
| An inspired piece dedicated to an inspired and inspiring artist, David. Lee | |
| I was inspired by Sam's dialectical photographic work in NYC! david: ) |

| I have always been fascinted by how, given the right visual lead, however schematic, the human eye/mind fills in the movement! david: ) | |
| And to Justin: I have never viewed this piece as at all risque! That's quite a thought - lol!! david: ) | |
| excellent concept! | |
| I don't know how graph paper can be made sexy. But you did it. I'm a figure kind of guy. Not much into abstract. However this is FANTASTIC. You should probably screen for under age viewers so you don't get introuble! If I could rate higher than 10 I would. Justin | |
| I think this is my favorite from the serie. The motion on this one feels almost sexual. |

| It seems that you were posting your comment about my work "Steven" at the same time that I was posting my comments about your work "The Dresser"...Great coincidence! :-) | |
| Thank you very much Ron for your comments on this painting and to you too Rs for your kind words. It is always good to hear from you both. Best wishes, Miguel | |
| masterful work as always. | |
| I like the creativity of this piece. You have also done a great job in working with realistic looking hair. Not always easy for some artists. |
