Brenda Starr's Art Reviews

2005-08-11T12:55:00.000-07:00

Deep into a seashell, she looked...
and right in the light of day -
There, inside, she spotted
A gathering of old souls at play!

From within the tiny seashell,
bright stars tickled her feet...
Now in the deep end of her dreams
She dances to Heaven's heartbeat.

This is really great! I love the swirling shapes that add centre of interest to your already strong sense of composition. There is a wonderful balance of contrast and very interesting colours. I could imagine this picture would convey witches sitting at a table telling tales and their candles burning.

For some reason ( probably the wavy lines) this reminds me of sheet music. I really like the patterns and the nice colors you used.I am especially drawn to the left top whitish figure that looks ghostly. - Kat

I like the use of colors and how they create nice depth to the artwork. The white wavy lines, which seems to be in the foreground, mimic a musical staff. That, to me, gives this piece a real lyrical flowiness to it. Combine that with larger line shapes with sharp turns, and large filled-in shapes in the background. This reminds me of a large orchestra playing a grandiose symphony!

There is a spiritual connection with this image as well, a musical bar with notes as such! I read the caption and the frequency high notation! The image has the appeal of musical notes, well done, and the spiritual motivation is from above, let it lead the way for you! I like the colors and wavy effect of the image! The white lines across the top to me reflect a spiritual tone that some of us will hear, other won't! This is what I see and feel when viewing this piece! Thanks for sharing!

I Thought I would publish some of my art reviews...just to share some varied views about this "Type" of digtal art that I do....as I am certainly NOT alone as a digital art enthusiast. On a popular site that I have become a member of: http://www.fanartreview.com/, (FAR for short reference)I have encountered many artists of a digital nature and straight photographers as well....what constitutes "digital art" seems to be questionable on this site in particular.For the FAR site, anything with even the tiniest photograph implemented is construed as Photography....while absolutely no photography and using computer manipulations/software constitues Digital Art, according to the FAR site. However, out in the real world you will often find that to be the opposite.I think on a large scale the character of ART itself is changing. Well, come on, it HAS to....to keep up with the technology that is literally at the fingertips of our imaginations these days.I say....you be the judge and just enjoy something appealing, hopefully to the eye, heart and spirit.

KatsArt wrote, This is very nice. The colors are clear and crisp. The shadowing thing on the right bottom looks like someone looking at the flower within the neon purple shape. I love the texturing you did in the upper and lower left corners, and the way it softens as you drift towards the middle. Good Work. Kat
