Well, I've been unable to comment for awhile since I could not get on line due to traveling. I was just playing catch up and ran across your name. Since my son's name is Bruce I took a look at your paintings. I love them. They are very creative and the colors are wonderful.Don't be discouraged if you haven't had many comments. This is a lot like a game here.People earn play money by reviewing other art.Then they put it toward their art to promote it. So naturally they want to review art with the most profit to themselves.It would also help if you created a bio. This is a wonderful, one of a kind painting. The perspective is great. Its lively and colorful and a good size.

This is awesome! I love the brilliant colors you used, the shapes are fun, and I like how the bridge is reflected in the water. Very cool. Oil pastels are hard to work with, you've pulled this off very nicely!

This had a nice balance of color and vividly so. Interesting shapes and lines. There wasn't as much overlapping on the right as on the left and this made it seem slightly unbalanced. Overall I really liked this piece.

I love the color and shapes in this picture - very vivid and eye catching. It raises the question as to "Is the brown ball' actually on the bridge or behind it?". A nice picture.

i really love this painting! the colours are contrasting. the black with the colour looks really good. i like how you use the simple shapes and turn them into things. overall i think this is a really good painting.

I liked this very much. Like the bold colours, the unusual textures, and weird shapes of the trees. Is almost pop art in a way and a lot of fun. Best wishes.

This is a very beautiful pictrue. The colors are great.
I really love the name of the park, Smith. That's my
last name. It would have been nice to read a line
or two describing this park and where it was at.
Whether it was real or fiction. Maybe next time you
post something you will think about telling a little somthing
about it.

Thanks for sharing
T Rose

Very excellent use of pastels, reminds one of expressive artwork from the sixties or seventies with vibrant colors and unique shapes for plant life. Some areas seem smudged (that may be just me), but that is a potenial hazard when working in oil pastels, it doesn't seriously take away from the quality of the work.
