Critiques


:iconmrparaduo:
A tranquil piece to say the least. This artist has done it again in showing symbolic realism that's so gentle and non bombastic that it's almost criminal. Let's begin!
Mentioned before, the piece shows a great deal of realism due to photo manipulation, yet it also gives a serene feel, the water is perfect as it's lit up by the light of the clouds and gold fish breaking the surface. It even shows a bit of dread the further you go down into the murky depths, while a more wondrous feel glows the further you go and look to the sky.

Clip notes: Poetic and simple, yet dynamic in such beauty. The only real change needed is for the fish to be more apparent if the main character of the story conveyed in the piece, I didn't even notice it was a gold fish till I focused more intently on it rather then the landscape...still, I could just be needing glasses. KEEP IT UP!! :la:
