laro - laro lang sa kulay... the over -all color is blue aight? so ginawa kong medyo red yung kamay kaya mukhang umangat, kasi nabago bigla yung color compared sa paligid nya

tnx po

herm ok, first of all as a member of REVIEWS BY REQUEST, i have chosen to review this picture because i believe it a perfect example of faults and immpressive use of good matrials, sorry to be so harsh. the first thing that i noticed was the massive division between what looks like two halves? this interrupts the cascading element which is visible and obviously well achieved. to me it looks as if you have developed this piece by useing layers and building up the theme which is a good idea but you still end up with a strong diversion between each layer. however, this has added character to the piece. what i would have suggested is that if lyers and cropping where going to be used within this piece i would try to develop and more stealthy approach by merging the two piece's into each other as opposed to have a sudden break in the picture.

the colour is what could be descirbed as unique. having used adobe photoshop before i was amazed at the unlimitedf useage of colour and the variations that could beachieved in tone. this is a classic example of this. applaud to the creator!!!

if you wish to discuss my opinions then don't hesitate to drop me a line.

The first thing I thought of when I saw this was "Hey! A Dave McKean fan. Cool!" -I'm a big fan of his. The second thing I thought was "this is pretty gay".

So, if you were trying to create a poster to decorate a gay man's bathroom then I say this picture is a flaming success. 10 Stars and an A+.

Nice conception! I really liked the colors and the blending, but i think the image is a little disbalanced. Probably because of the center figure (hands up)... I'm a little addicted to symmetry, but on this case im sure it would bring a more powerful impact. Symmetry has some influence on our brains in the general perception of the whole stuff, following it or breaking it are very strong ways to establish a psychological link between your artwork and the one who sees it...

Maybe someday
the chains will break
When the stars shine green
Maybe someday
I will breathe fresh air
When the sea and land change hands
Maybe someday
All people will be honest
When the world comes to a sudden end.

torico [2004-09-03 06:42:40 +0000 UTC]

good general idea.
i like the way u used warn and cold colors together, adding textures is a way to give depth and sense.
It makes me thinks that our most important limit, is that where are just humans !
