First off, good job! I have always been a bit jealous of painters. I can't paint all that well. This painting is one of the best I have ever seen though. I can see what you were going for, your originality is really high, I've never seen this technique used, and the impact is beautiful.
I cannot get over the colors. They are just astounding. The red is so vibrant yet dull in some spots (a good thing!). The contrast between the white, black, grays, reds, and browns is beautiful. Everything is busy and this painting really jumped out at me.
I'm not too sure how you painted this but you should keep that up! The different brush strokes across the whole thing are really intriguing. On one side they're harsh and sharp while on other parts they're soft and blend in well.
There's nothing I can tell you to improve on really. Other than your description I guess. I really like to know what an artist was thinking while making art. But by the title I can make an educated guess.
Really, great job! Keep up the amazing work!

This is absolutely Stunning. It is One of the best watercolours I have ever seen. It is so good it fools the viewer into thinking that perhaps this is an oil painting.. Or perhaps this is a pastel drawing ? The mystique of the piece does not go unnoticed , neither Does the overall brilliance of it.
The colors were used wonderfully. The highly concentrated red perfectly contrasts the offset white and beige and Pinks we see here. It draws one in, as well as forces them to observe the entire scenario, and I dare say it does leave the soul disappointed!

You are an astounding artist and this piece signifies your creative flow.
I love the use of the scarlet red cascading for the white and black figures like a giant wave. It truly draws the eye and you did especially well by painting the sky in overcast and the buildings in a marble white fashion. I'm not making any claims here but i feel like the white and black figures remind me of riot police in a city square, and maybe the red represents the blood of revolution, of course, I could be wrong. It's your vision not mine
In other words,
Very well done

It looks like one of those moments where everything changed in a second and no one was ready for it. Kinda like the Italian version of Jack the Ripper in its own twist. It also kinda reminds me of phantom of the opera with Mr. Butler in it near the end of the movie. I do love this painting/sketch though so don't let me discourage you at all. I hope this will help you in some way or another but I would love to see the next picture you make. Just remember even the best can always improve so never stop trying!

This piece is very powerful. It has tons of depth and emotion among the color choices. Feeling is a big part of this piece, you can see and feel the artists energy while creating a sense of awareness of the area in question. It has a sense of solidarity as well as very occupied appearance, its one for the viewer to determine.
The size of this piece is also what makes it very enjoyable, it's not too small where it lacks in detail but just the right size to express the point the artist was trying to express through their medium.

This art is very good I really like both originality and colors I really like the art practice some distortions are greatly look mixing the shades are good what I like most is that shade of red that add you to the paint looks great. The vision although some things are as they are mixed it is as if everything looked disheveled and yet not, so I used a technique I very, very good based on this truth and strives each day more with each gear using and practicing every technique it's very good keep working like this e.deviantart.net/emoticons/b/b… " width="15" height="15" alt="

I LOVE the use of red and the hints of blue. It goes well for the nation of France, but I LOVE the red especially. It adds to the macabre feel of this image.

Okay. You capture what could be the "sound" of the events going on in the picture. VERY awesome art. VERY heartfelt.

Futurism meets Impressionism in such a moving manner. You have such a great command of color and space.

Magnifique travail... Je serai bien curieuse de savoir comment vous travaillez vos formes à l'aquarelle !
C'est en tous cas un vrai bonheur, tant visuel que technique et on ressent avec force le plaisir que vous avez eu à dessiner ^^
Bonne continuation !

Let's see ... mmm ... behind the Opera Garnier and to the left is Printemps ... and behind Printemps is FNAC ... and katty-korner from FNAC is Gare St. Lazare ... and behind the Opera Garnier and to the right is Galeries Lafayette ... on & on I walked the streets or Paris, crossed every bridge, sat in every garden...

when I look at art, a lot of times I look into the reflection of the painting...I see many things that IDK if it's my imagination or IF you intend to put these people or figures there, but I do see a very bloody battle where the entire town met with extreme violence; even the buildings are bleeding. There are skeleton faces or faces of death in the reflection and a bloody figure of a large man dressed in red (as I see it of course) and he represents the evil in this art... I love ur art bc it truly tells a story.
