The colours here are quite lovely, and your gradient method with the black and blue (ie top part of the sky) is very lovely!

I like how you've kept the stars more present in the black sky, and less further to the light. well balanced. technique points+!
you've lost some technique points on areas such as the brush stroked can be seen in and around the top moon. I prefer the technique you used for in/around the moon on the lower half.

I'm abit nitpicky, but the reflection isn't mirroring the visible top half. there's an extra mountain peak there and some bonus lighting along the reflected peaks e.deviantart.net/emoticons/let… " width="15" height="15" alt="" title=" (Lick)"/> it's kind of distracting thus impact point loss..

the dynamics of the reflection is very real though. Something in the image curves abit, giving the illusion of the lake shore and the reflection following it. impact points+!

overall: it's a lovely picture with a well conveyed lighting source and enjoyable colour choices. Keep practicing, you're defiantly onto a good thing here.

This is an absolutely gorgeous piece of art - I love it! I think the colors are so vibrant and contrast very well. The reflection is beautiful too! The only constructive comment I would leave for this piece is the mountains in the reflection almost look like they are snow covered on the top while the opposite side are strictly black. Other than that this is great!

I love this! The tones of the blue look so calm and the contrast between the black and the rest make it stand out so well. <3

If you turn the picture upside down the moon is textured on the correct side of the lake and the comet is at the right brightness (relative to the twin)

very good perspective and projective study here. the only real noticeable flaw in this case is the moon`s reflection (or was it by any chance a stylistic choice, literally of the second world from bellow the surface of the water...? not a reflection?)
I like the little details - for example, you can see there`s a settlement close to the base of that mountain (the yellowish light, a light of fire).

that being said, I don`t like the stars. they don`t really look like stars, they appear as simple white gouache blobs here and there. also, you should decide how you want your brush stroke marks - hidden or evident. they`re all over the place now.

Thank you for your comment))It was my first painting in this style)And I don't like some details. But reflection in the water was very hard painted, it's really hard.
