Comment from Lucien van Oosten


Really nice job on this piece of artwork on mimicking the aboriginal style and technique of their art form.
Good use of color and variation of the size of the dots throughout the composition.
I am pleased to read that you enjoyed creating this piece and you were inspired by the contest.

Just to let you know I thought your work here excellent. You made a very appealing piece. I agree with your notes. I enjoyed and found the subject inspiring. It ended up only the two of us .. sad no more entered. There was another but it disappeared

    Thank you for the six stars and your nice comments :)
    It was disappointing that more people didn't enter this one. I would like to see it become a site sponsored contest, which won't happen if only two people enter! As soon as I saw the description I was motivated to give it a try - and I thought it was very fun. I think your entry was a much better representation of Aboriginal art. Congrats on the win!

    It is so I am finding not enough here for artists variety. A lot of repeated ones popping up but as you say if not well attended the site wont make it a main one. We two could keep doing them and posting as ordinary posts. We will be in the running for monthly awards etc. If you agree i give you a challeng you do an undersea one and I do an animal one say in the next 4 weeks just for fun. Xx B next month you challenge me and do on. The site will get used to seeing that type of art. Pointillism is another similar type of art.

    Hi Brenda, I'm sorry it took me so long to reply to your last remarks. I obviously don't look at FAR very often! I just saw that there is another dot art contest. I hope you will enter it. I think I might. As far as your suggestion for the two of us to play around with dot art for the fun of it. I like the idea, but worry that I don't spend enough time on FAR. I'll send a message to your inbox when I think I can spend more time, if that is alright with you.

    Hi... no worries I too am slowing down with FAR other problems to see to. But yes it is another contest and I am entering it by TD Traditional Art I think is the sponsor. Looking out for you.

Very colorful and creative!
I like the various sizes of dots and cuteness of these two giraffes.
This is a fine entry for this contest which asks for color.
Fantastic work ;) Best of luck in the voting!

Wow this is really gorgeous I love the work you did using dots. It's beautiful. I love the pattern you created in the background and the colors are gorgeous it works so well with the two beautiful giraffes. You have so much talent and so much imagination. I really hope you win the contest. I wish I had a six left to give you even though this is a 10. Outstanding work my dear friend thank you so much for sharing
