A gorgeous Digital Art .....I love your beautiful description of this summer Island sunset scene. Gorgeous colors with good blending and shading of colors. Good differentiation and contrast. Your play with light and shadows gives life to this image. Nice movement created in your scene and good details. An artistic composition and creative piece. Outstanding work and thanks for sharing. Congratulations on your 1st place win.....well deserved!

This is a worthy winner of the contest, Cleo. It's a lovely digital art image of the beautiful beach. I like how you composed this with the lovely palm tree leaning over the water, the rowing boat anchored there and the setting sun casting a golden glow in the sky and water. Lovely use of colour. Excellent composition. Suzanne

I haven't been around on this site much but it is so good to see your work. You are still that talented artist that I loved to view your art. This painting, is so relaxing to view, one can feel the warm breeze and vision oneself, setting on the beach.
thanks for sharing this beautiful work of art Cleo

I like this work because it is so classical in its concept and execution and in its atmosphere; The light, colour and the composition have worked well. Good luck!

The scene is soothing , the color is vibrant and the r is so reminiscent of the art on Rising Sun China. I can look at this all day I cannot find anything I don't like about it it's gorgeous!

Really nice digital art creation of a summertime in the Caribbean islands. This is well deserving of a winning piece that was created by a talented artist. I like the various colors used, depth and presentation. It definitely gives off a place where I would want to be right about now. Thanks for sharing

What a great scene Cleo. I can see why this was a contest winning digital work of art.

The colorful boat in the foreground leads the eye to the water where the palm tree frames the reflective waters.

The land on the left takes the eye to the far reaches of the scene where the horizon touches the warm sunset sky.

A very peaceful scene Cleo. Thank you so much for reviving it for all to see and enjoy ~ Steve

Comment from Mr Jones


really beautiful, excellent picture. great in the way you have placed all of the various components and dreamy like beach scene together. the viewer wants to enter the picture and walk around all of the curves and contours of the sands.

Well created island beach scene. The colors in the sky are well placed and then reflected back in the water. The palm tree is well positioned. The sense of place is well felt. Over all on my monitor this feels dark. Wondering if it could be brightened a little? Well done.
