Pick Out Someone's Work That Caught Your Eye And Tell Why It Did

Will start this off with a image that caught my eye as I went thru the images of our group. I couldn't help wondering how many had sat on that pier and watched the beautiful sunset and realized the beauty we don't take time to see.

This is cool the blue against the old caught my eye.

Love the idea, Stefon. Thank you for helping this group and all participants promote their art.

I'm not sure exactly why this piece speaks to me...But I find it to be striking, brooding and eerie... yet at the same, time very attractive. It's not even my usual taste...but it stuck out... Great work!

Love Marcia's beautiful painting! This particular composition really,drew me in. Marcia's work is so beautiful, so if you haven't visited her gallery yet, you won't be disappointed!

So beautiful and at first glance it looked like it was smiling, which put a smile on my face!

Karen has many great things for you to look at~this is one of my favorites because I love night scenes especially of the moon. I like the color of the sky in this also. :)

This one caught my eye with its beauty of color and how the digital art showed it in a different way.

Vibrant colors just jumped out from this painting!

The photographer in me was thinking while I would like to be there...lovely painting!

This post refers to the painting above, by Ms. Mihailescu. The feeling you get looking at this picture is serenity. What a beautiful image. If you have a chance to see Ms. Mihailescu's site, you are in for a treat. Such an unique painting style that contains such emotion and beautiful brushwork. Love the composition. Makes we want to go there an set up an easel just to repeat the emotions I feel viewing this.

The complementary colors and composition jumped out at me.

This one caught my eye in the way the clouds looked like feathers drifting across the sky and how peaceful the water looks.

This is Winter in Roskishne by Danil Shurykin. What impressed me most about this work by Danil, was how appealing the dead of an ukrainian winter has been made in this painting. The reflections show the warmth that was there in autumn still in the grasses and trees. And, it has this warmth and promise of Spring, with the thawing of ice and the soft, early morning light. It is so beautifully executed. There is a hint of melancholy, a longing for the warmth and sun.

I am posting this because, looking at Linda's site, the mediums she has explored are numerous. I enjoy this one because it is using composition, color and content from other mediums and applying it to Digital art. I find this totally refreshing, modern and at the same time, reminding us of the best of the 60s music. Each phrase or title brings the words and song to mind. It is modern, fun and artistically rendered. It makes me want to expand my art to adapt new ideas ... just not computer ones.. it took me forever to make my first post on these discussions. Back to this art. May I encourage you to look at Linda's site and view the texas steer and a few others. Doesn't it inspire you to try something new with your art? I want to favorite this

I loved that the painting combined the fluidity or looseness of watercolor with the magic achieved with colors blending, and the tightness of oil or acrylic. I also loved the action and drama captured with such detail.. The look on the calf's face, the power of the horse, restrained and controlled. It is a powerful painting with a palette that appeals.

This bridge looks like it goes on and on and very beautiful sight!

This Painting of Maria, want a favorite, among others. Love Cactus since I am new to Arizona and Ms Maria has some Wonderful artwork, and hope to share more......Enjoy

Sorry had to Post this one too, Willie catch my eye on Stefon wonderful Gallery...and You can see why..............

!

Inspiring. I love sunrises and Sunsets.. and I love trees. This one combines such incredible colors and marries it with the grace and beauty of trees. It was hard to choose just one image from her gallery but this one stole my heart. I vote this one

I found this image in a search for lighthouses and I loved the composition. Couldn't you just pack a lunch and spend the afternoon? (I'd sure bring along sketching materials.. What a peaceful scene

There is a series of 4 of these sensitive watercolors of songbirds. I live in the desert and don't have the song of these beautiful birds. Linda has done a series which means people can pair two pictures. I thought this was a wonderful idea for artists to have more choices for groupings and sales.

This lone tree is so free, loose, and bright, with splatters of paint and distant mountains to balance out the scene. Beautiful, uncomplicated painting. Love it, Bette. V/F

I had to search back a bit to find this one... but it is a reminder to look at creating art in a new way.. kudos, Linda

I love this image of Maria's. It is so bright and cheerful to my eye but I like the fact she is featuring a business where one can buy fresh vegetables and fruit. Fruit stands are the heart and soul of many small towns and we all need to support grass roots business.

Love the detail, color and whimsicalness to this beautiful art piece! The combining of the sun, tulips and butterflies is lovely!

I thought this one looked rather interesting with the lightning bolt's and it reminded me of some sort of power plant or some sort of energy creation device to create a huge amount of power perhaps for some sort of star ship or something of that nature. From reading the description it's not about power or energy creation but still when I look at it I see star ship power plant like the thing powering the death star.

Having spent today in a Raleigh Kinney watercolor workshop painting the Superstition mountains. This photo is of what I have been staring at today!

I Love Ole Cars and Constance had this favorite of mine..............Check it out

I love this piece by Harriet, it is colorful, has animals and constellations! It is totally awesome. I love nature and animals and I have always believed that wildlife and nature have full lives just like we do. In addition I am a professional astrologer, so looking at this batik of Harriet's, I see these animal astrologers discussing the constellations and their impact on their forest society. It takes me to a whole new world which is one of peace, joy and wonder. Hope you like it too!

stunning photography and adorable subject.

I have visited this painting before and commented on it; and looking at it again, I like it even more! This watercolour has a dreamy quality, reminiscent of a time long ago. On a more technical note, the composition works well and the use of color is great! Love it!

This is a beautiful display of flowers with nice tones and textures.

I love the mood of this one!

creative, imaginative work.

This caught my eye today.

This adorable Sabrina's eyes caught my attention right away ,wondering what she's trying to tell me

This is such a fantastic painting. There's so much detail and depth of scene. So much to look at! Love the colors and the deer at the pond too. Nicely done!

Lovely photo of a place that I want to visit someday...

Love the sunshine!

This beautiful painting drew me right in with it's vivid colors and uplifting mood, gorgeous work:-)

Gorgeous array of colors!!

I am a sucker for white tigers but this image is very cool with the reflection in the water and the alert position of the ears. Nice photograph!

Super colors

I couldn't help but like this.

Very nice photo that has had a sensitive treatment.

Thanks for the feature by Sharon Duguay on my Sabrina portrait. It took me a while to take her shot as she does not like camera. I was really please with her expression.

I just browse a new fellow Canadian Artist - Mojgan Jafari from Richmond Hill, Ontario. She had the artistic talent on her painting. I especially love this "Mirror" image. It caught my attention as this painting captures the facial expression of the subject with her mirror reflection, It is just amazing

Saw this image and could not stop by grab it to share. These are such adorable little foxes, it always amazes me how some photographers are able to clearly capture an intimate pair like this one. I have yet to be so lucky. I love seeing images of wildlife close up since I have seen very few in my life. Nice work by Steve Dunsford!

This is a stunning enhanced image of a gorgeous classic Chevy... LOVE the digital glowing colors it has. Beautiful work by Judy Vincent.

This golden glow is gorgeous in this sunset photograph... Composed nicely too.

Just visited Zdenko Radovanic gallery and found this work is either creative and interesting. Got my attention

Check this out....Gorgeous....
