Really horrific. But I kind of like your more vivid colors compared to what I see as faded and washed out colors in some of your other work. I also like your object organization of people gathered together separated from buildings and environment. Reasons for my five star vote.

    thank you. have you actually looked through my portfolio. Except when painting on card, no one has ever described my work as faded colours!

    You are welcome. And, I have looked through you portfolio. So much pain and despair. I do feel for you. When you look at my work you see sharp and vivid colors compared to yours. That is what I mean by faded. But I will take a second look.

    thank you. My first job always is to look through portfolios. We are a difficult generation, DP's born '45, Sand in the wind, no one wants us. The Brits wanted workers but once the colonies began flowing in, wanted us out.

    You are welcome. I am only at page 18 at the moment. You have magnificent color exchange skills using different colors to describe images and to cause the viewer to become entrapped spending time to look at the strange juxtaposition of objects, shapes and other forms. But, compared to mine I still see the colors washed out. And yes it is a bit difficult being born in the lost generation. I was born July 5, 1945 stuck between the greatest generation and the baby boomers.

This is another piece that I can see hanging in a gallery, there is so much detail to study here, the faces, the structures, the staircases, the keyhole, I like that black and white pattern. Very well created, with your usual wonderful colors that bring this to life.well presented!
