Éste es una de tus pinturas más hermosas... Yo veo una "evolución" hacia atmósferas más sutiles...Me gusta!

This is one of the most beautiful paintings ... I see an "evolution" toward more subtle atmospheres ... I like!

Soft and dreamy.

I love the colors and softness. It is so like the incredible universe full of life and light.

I would have expected You explored once more the black color here, but surprisingly a see only delightfully soft pastel color tones and geometries. Fine art indeed.

What a great blood moon! Interesting compositional effect and all the elements and colors are intriguing.

Cramming the "moon" into the upper left corner without much breathing space has me a little nervous on a couple counts. It's cool how it feels like it's appearing or entering into the frame. But it's so tense up in that region that it's like it's a magnet pulling in all the iron shards. Interesting compositional proposition to be sure. Not sure how I feel about it. Inside me, it's like listening to a

Or the "Call" half of a musical "call and response". Does it get your attention? People are going to anticipate a resolution that's sorta balanced. Whether you deliver the resolution or not is a matter of what you're after = do you want them to provide the response (can they?) or do you want a reaction. . . which they may immediately seek out elsewhere, in someone else's painting.

Having said all that, I really like it. Intellectually, as I wander around I find really cool thinking, like the reflection below and all that. The more I look, the better I like it. Kind of like acquiring a taste for sour candy or alcohol. I could grow to seek it out. . . and who knows, broken rules can certainly become the established norm. So I'm adopting a wait and see attitude. Those were my first impressions. Let's see if you continue to explore that particular aspect of it and what it comes to be in further pictures if such is your interest in those dynamics.

Very beautiful Gary and a much different direction and style then your previous abstracts. I really love this image, love it a lot....

[Bobbi]

Kind of interesting. For some reason it reminds me of peaches. I do like the colors.
