Comment from Dasha N
Your idea of representing the ocean adventure is great! All your background has soft tones that appear very natural. All your details such as fish, jellyfish and seahorse have bright colors that take my attention right away and keeps it for a long time. Great art work!

Congratulations Linda and your winning entry. It is a lovely bright, light piece of art work. I love the colours that you have chosen and the composition of your art work with the various ocean creatures surrounding the fish. Great work!

Hi Linda, I love the way you do the background then paint on the fish. The background comes across very pleasing and the fish, jellyfish and seahorse are delightful. Love the way you arranged them too! Very Nicely Done! :o) Nancy

Comment from Charlie Newman
Your painting is very realistic and reminds me of much of the sea life I've seen. The colors are vivid, attractive and they appear natural. The details of the "creatures" are very well done and the softened background works well. Congratulations!!!

Hey Linda! I just love this artwork you have created here. Everything just works so nicely together. The abstract background to the sea life in the foreground really give an outstanding initial impact. The use of light is well shown and adds to the work. A really great piece overall, well done!

Linda,
A beautiful stop action painting showing the colourful fish, Seahorse & three differently coloured Jellyfish swimming in among the sea weeds moving in the tidal currents. Created by your artist's eye for composition very skilful brushwork beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing these creatures to life in the deep.
Susan

Linda this piece is so special so it got my vote! Your experimental technique is fun and successful! I like how you created the watery background thinning your paint. I also like the fish, jellyfish and seahorse. Positive and creative art! Hope it's a winner, too.
