The colors you used here are just great.
The dark is very cleverly used here. Creates a mysterious atmosphere.

Whow ! IΒ΄ve got a wintergarden and so I have about 150 cacti. Most about them I love their different bizarrly shapes. For instance, I have a blooming Selenicereus Grandiflorus and a blooming Leuchtenbergia Principis. IΒ΄m very proud of it.

Great painting, Claudia! Excellent depth perception.
Y'know what I love? Here and with the other (the floral garden entrance painting) you've shown that a centrally focused image works spectacularly when created correctly. Many believe (and TEACH!!) that this isn't possible. I just think it's hard to do...
Well....you've done it. So there!

Wow! I love how the cactus seems to glow in the dark - I knew you grew magical plants. And the cat's eyes behind it are a wonderful touch!

VivalaVida In reply to Ellygator [2006-11-26 17:37:22 +0000 UTC]

For me cacti are magical. The painting is sympathized with reality, my tomcat Lucifer loves it sitting amongst the cacti.

jonas-took [2006-11-26 14:29:31 +0000 UTC]

it looks like the pastels on black paper that you have done lately, for the first painting it has a great glow and luminous quality like life just blazing away during the night....(that may not make sense...sorry) I like it.

VivalaVida In reply to jonas-took [2006-11-26 14:49:29 +0000 UTC]

Yes, youΒ΄re right. The luminous effect is just like on the pastels. Glad you like it. I think I should make some more Oilpaintings in that style.
