38. Hey!

I was giving my opinion. hehe

Apparently, it was a cold night after some intoxicants. I think that red pointy thing top-left was protruding.

But, thanks for the whippins! :woohoo:

:rofl:

[SeattleGirl]

3. Beautiful!

I love the colors!

[Lyric]

4. I do too :)

Very vivid and True, aren't they?

[Lil Missy]

5. My honest opinion.

It's kinda noisy. All that beautiful color behind the gal takes over the entire picture. And really does not contribute anything.

[Lyric]

6. Thank you.

:hug:

I appreciate the honesty.

Check your PMs. :)

[Whisp]

20. what gal, i don't see no gal.

really. I see a bouquet like of flowers.

:rofl:

[leftyclimber]

7. I'd hang it in my living room.

Those are my favorite colors -- kinda Fauvist.

[Arkansas Granny]

8. I'm no art critic, but I think it's lovely.

I can't decide if it make me think more of a field of flowers blowing in the wind or a colony of sea creatures on a coral reef swaying in the surf.

[Bucky]

9. It makes me think of dessert.

Or cheating. It inspires me to cheat. You meanie.

[Lyric]

10. *is not to blame for your innate Evilness*

I just choose the pics to post. Any desires to to Evil are TOTALLY up to you. :P

(And thank you!)

[WinkyDink]

11. Oh, I remember that! I MADE A MAGNET OF IT, using zazzle.com! It's on my fridge!

I added a magenta border! :)

[Genevieve]

12. It's lovely - though it seems to have been painted by a child . . . .

with much artistic potential.

[bertha katzenengel]

13. Seriously? It takes me back to early grade school.

I don't know if it is, but it looks like finger painting. I loved finger painting.

Maybe that's silly, but that's what that painting does for me.

[Genevieve]

14. Me too. Though the colors are nice, nt

[Tuesday Afternoon]

15. blond girl, holding a flower beside a red chair...

finger paints?

nice composition.

[BarenakedLady]

16. Mellow

and calming with an undercurrent of stronger emotion (maybe love?)

[SeaLyons]

17. First impression is

two sitting on a bench, a blonde child, and purple haired friend. It has a beautiful sadness to it.

[DS1]

18. nothing. ill.

[Whisp]

19. first reaction - i really like it, it has that 'A-ha!' factor.

i can 'feel' the paint and that's great - i love tactile stuff. looks like finger painting, squishy. Can almost smell all the different colors.

feels springlike and bursting and popping and alive.
i haven't looked at any other posts so will do now, curious.

[otherlander]

21. I feel like it should be a cake.

Like it's made out of icing.. Kind of makes me think of Mardi Gras.

[I Have A Dream]

22. I like the colors and the apparent textures, and I feel good after looking at it.

However, it's not a piece that I'd put in my home or buy. That's not a reflection of the painting though; I tend to like Impressionism in my home and at work.

[MrScorpio]

23. My opinion, as an artist

I like it!

[Gormy Cuss]

24. It looks like happy.

Hey, I'm no art critic.

[MilesColtrane]

25. Brushwork, composition is compelling.

The color choices make me think the artist is colorblind, or is not seeing through human eyes.

[PVnRT]

26. Seems impressionistic - looks like finger painting

Not that that's bad, of course - it's a pretty good interpretation of what looks to be flowers or some fruit.

[Fire Walk With Me]

27. Flowers, and then cake for some reason, or ice cream. (?)

The colors within each section are very nice but clash a bit, section against section. Which might be the intent?

I adore flowers with a passion and having a passionate sweet tooth, cake and ice cream as well. This painting makes me perceive "happy". What is the secret of this particular work? Are we about to learn that it was done by John Wayne Gacy or something?

[Phillycat]

31. Ice cream for me, too.

[Heidi]

28. Looks to me like it was made by someone with a pure heart.

And that's how it makes me feel: as though I'm seeing something through eyes less cynical and more playful than my own at this very moment. Thank you for sharing this. :hug:

[Shell Beau]

29. The colors are very vibrant and pretty.

[Phillycat]

30. Looks like fingerpaint.

[Dogtown]

32. Really nice

Busy, yes, but still very nice.

I like the force of the brush strokes. Very sensual and alive.



:hi:

[Withywindle]

33. I like it.

I don't LOVE it, but I like it.

Some folks see people in it? Really? I don't see any people at all. It looks kind of like a suggestion of a cake made of ice cream and flowers. Maybe with a butterfly sitting on it. A little twee, but very summery and it makes me hungry. :9

34. Digging this back up for an UPDATE! The artist is revealed!

This was painted by my son when he was five years old. We had bought a few inexpensive canvasses at Michael's craft store, and some cheap tempera paint in all colors.

He called it "The Old Lady and the Woman." Not sure why. He hardly seems to remember, now. He used an enormous brush (the "big" one in the pack that we got) and painted this on an easel set up at a local park in between rides down the slide and swinging.

You all gave some wonderful, wonderful pieces of feedback, which I have copy-pasted and intend to save for him.

Thank you! :grouphug:

[BrklynLiberal]

35. Very lovely for a 5 year old. Doe he do art work now?

It made me think of a bunch of flowers.

[Lyric]

37. Kind of.

He hasn't painted on canvas in quite a while, but he's been working with watercolors at school and has brought home a few really amazing pieces.

:hi:

[BrklynLiberal]

39. I think he should stick with it....To have such a great sense of color at 5 years old would

indicate some terrific potential

[GoddessOfGuinness]

36. Interesting...

I was going to say it looked like a child's artwork (please understand, this isn't putting it down). But I thought it was an undersea picture. I see a scallop, some anenomes, and some sort of colorful seaweed.

I think it's pretty! Bravo to your son!

[defendandprotect]

40. If a 5 year old did this . . . it's good--!
