I love the combination of colors and how the flame looked real. The use of the color gold made the art alive.
I can also see the different images behind the flame.

This is just gorgeous! The candle is so well created and I love that way it glows from within , the flame is also very well shown, the colors in candle as well as background are same but you have managed to bring the candle forward and make it glow so that it really stands profoundly!
This is a wonderful entry for the contest! It's truly a pleasure to view! Very best wishes to you in this contest!

Your painting Candle in the Night is just so excellent and so impressionistic. Marvelous use of your pallet knife along with waxy candle and that flame....! Enjoy the rays of light and candle placement on your canvas and color choices. Impressive mastery of your acrylic medium.
Thank You for sharing and light be with you.....good luck......bunkie

It is always nice to see alternate approaches. You have created something different here. It looks like someone holding the candle and trying to find a way into a forest! The colours blend well. Good luck in the contest!

Lovely colorful semi-abstract or abstract work done in the candle so glowing and the background that complements it so well. Nice composition. Like so much the greens, orangey and other colors, patterns.

A really nice piece of art creation with so many details in the background and inside the candle that it is really special and outstanding, making us look closer and closer to see how you really created all those details with such a high frame choice that everything is outstanding
a very nice presentation - all the best of luck for the contest xoxo

I think I know who is behind this work of art, because you do have a special style. I especially like the color pallet you have used, and also how well you have done the flame. It presents the realism in anotherwise abstract painting.

I also like all the fine textures you have brought out with your palette knife, and all the great lines and shapes. The candle itself almost looks like it was lit from inside.

The tall format is perfect, and the candle has got a fine placement within the frame. I think this is a lovely and well done painting, and I wish you luck with the contest.
