Description Look at the sky crowded with stars looking down at us.
Look at the cold clouds, cradling the moon light.
Look at the night's blanket and discover the secrets it holds. 

I am a city girl through and through. Hence, whenever I go to the country side for thanksgiving break to visit my friend's family I was overcome with awe by the starry night sky staring for hours through the car's glass window. So I had to come home and paint it. 

If you like the painting (or don't I won't judge ) please leave a comment. Cause I love love love comments. Criticism is not only welcomed, but encouraged.

Wow, your paintings are always so pretty! keep up the good work!

I like the highlights on the foreground silhouette, they look really nice!

I also like the choice of blues in the sky, really pretty!

To give some constructive feedback, I only have two little things to say about the clouds:

  • At the edges of a few of the clouds, the brush looks like it's skidding across the canvas. Maybe pick a smoother brush? This is
  • When I look at the entire painting, the clouds look really nice. When I look closer at the clouds, the highlights feel rather bright. Maybe decrease the lightness a little tiny bit?

    I was actually thinking about reducing the brightness but it made the entire scene look too dull and uneventful. Maybe it was a composition fault but you have point. As far as the brushes go I am still experimenting with a new software so thanks for the tip I will keep it in mind

    Makes sense. Again, it does look fine when you stand back and look at the painting as a whole. Up close it feels a bit iffy but not sure what the best way to fix it is while keeping the contrast.

    Gotcha, hope the new program works well for you!
