Flames of Faith

A woman watching her home of Australia burn

The intricacies of this digital painting are astounding. This image speaks volumes, and when I look at it I spend time extrapolating the many qualities of this art: the beautiful aesthetics of it that show refined detail, anatomy, color blending, shading which are all masterfully done. I also feel the emotional aspects of it, with the hot colors used to indicate heat, and how it shows pain. Your description only magnifies that emotional response to this art, and it carries a lot of weight in seeing this image. But those eyes though...I can see the despair in them, and can only what's is going through her mind.

What an incredible image! You certainly captured the sadness of the situation in Australia! I can't even imagine going thru something so horrific as that! The way you did the image makes you feel the burn. The black represents the black ash of the burn to me. The flames speak for themselves. Love the flaming horse and woman you added. So much thought went into this! The whole country is definitely in my prayers. Super Job My Friend! :o) Nancy

    Dear Nancy, Thank you ever so much for your high review. I am deeply humbled and am so very Blessed that you felt what I was trying to portray in my art. I live in California and having our fires here made my own heart a kin and ached and weeped with those in Australia. No where to run or go. Sheer terror. By Grace of God I never have had to experience this. You are so very correct in the loss of land, forests and so many of God?s creatures. My heart really prays for the old. Some have no one. I do thank you and am very blessed that you took time for such a lovely review. Your review put Joy in my heart . May this the New Year of 2020 Bless you Nancy with unexpected miracles and Joy ~ Always ~

    I thought you did an incredible job of bringing out the devastation that touched both people and wildlife. You touched the heart. This is something you can't even imagine or even want to. It could not have been an easy painting for you to do. You deserve applause for opening your heart and creating this! Hugs!! :o) Nancy

This is very dramatic and emotional. It has a beauty as well. The colours are of fire the expression is bewilderment but of endurance ... there is much going on in this artwork. I see a naked figure and a fleeing horse along with other shapes the patterns and squiggles make this an exciting piece along with your tribute.

Wow this is very impressive the eyes show so much emotion but there is still so much strength in the face. One can only be impressed by the strength of the community around the people who have lost everything and know that the trauma will be with them for many years. Your depiction is very good.

Well I guess I'm looking at the winner of this one. Wink. The facial expression is excellent. The body forms and language is excellent. The depth is excellent. The shading is excellent. The details is excellent. The blend of the colors is awesome. The creation is well balance and very eye appealing to the viewer. Creative and awesome work overall

    Oh my goodness dear friend I never have had the word excellent used in a review so many times. I am humbled and honored beyond words. The plight they all are enduring in Australia just pulled major tugs at my heart strings. The fires somehow fit into faith. Fires being unpredictable and wild at times I realized the same for faith. Each meaning something different to each person. I thank you for taking time for your review that made my Soul soar with joy. May this the New Year 2020 Bless you with unexpected Joys. Keep creating and never stop believing my friend, as I know you always will.

Cindy Sue, a beautiful & very intricate image glowing in the colours of the Wildfires burning everything before them...killing & injuring many humans, animals, birds, forests & once beautiful landscapes... The lady's eyes convey the terror she feels within her very being. Created by your artist's eye for composition very skilful digital artwork & techniques beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life.
Susan

That's a fascinating Digital Presentation,Cindy Sue!
It's intricate and colorful and it's interestingly Out of the Ordinary and enjoyable to look at!
A rather 'Good Show' of a picture,my friend!

    Thank you for your review my dear friend. My father was a Los Angeles County fireman and I grew up with many a stories of his calls. Fire is fierce and awh! so unpredictable. Every fire I see or hear about tends to pull on my heart strings. Faith in Life is kinda like Fires. It?s individual, fierce and unpredictable. I?m always grateful getting your reviews my friend Sean, always stay happy :-) ??? Cindy Sue
