I think he gave you great advice but you did a magnificent job with the finished product! The water looks real and the colors are really beautiful. Great job!

You did a great job with the water. I like the sky, the sun and the sunset. The only thing I might change would be the pink near the sails on the boat. It takes away from the detail. Your lighting on the water is amazing. Very nice work.

Great job with amazing details on the ship Lynnkah! The sky is fabulous with all the realistic colors! The lighting and shadows perfect with the ship in the waves looking realistic and well drawn. Not my norm to award 6 stars for digital art but this is an exception!! Stunning!!

    WOW what a fantastic complment! I'm almost speechless here and that's hard for anyone to get me to that point LOL, but to give me a six on a digital painting when you say you rarely do that, is both humbleing and beyond grateful. I can't say thank you enough

    what a fantastic review and compliment. calling me a true artist humbles me. I haven't been doing this type of art for very long, I just became interested in it this year, so I'm learning by trial and error, so the complment you just paid me is a huge one. saying thank you can't discribe how I feel right now, but thank you.

Your art is beautiful with softness being one the first things noticed,the next being color and the blue waves. Again, the sunset and its colors are remarkable.

    thank you so much donna for a fantastic review and compliment. I couldn't have gotten these colors any where near right if it weren't for my husbands help. I would have ended up making the sunset too orange , so i guess I have to listen to him more often LOL
    thanks again donna

    Well, it's really good art. My husband helps me too, but usually it's over on Fanstory--and I tell him my style doesn't sound like his, HA! He has helped on a couple of my poems! But, I haven't written in awhile--gotta get back to it, and here on FAnArt. Smiles!
