Original and effective. No need dark colours to talk about loneliness. Fisically toguether, as little stones in an inclined box, they rolled to their positions.

wow

thank you very much indeed for a very perceptive feed-back [and thanks for obliging me by feed-back, in the first place! Hardly anyone does that here]

I like this! How unimportant they feel? Or that you felt, upon them? Yet important enough to immortalize? And I love the style and colors very much. Interesting and thought-provoking.

This is really a great painting. I think the color and the vertical lines really enforce the despair that these figures are feeling. The perspective also makes them seem like they are very small and under the microscope. I will fav this!

The composition and perspective are executed divinely. I am really impressed by the overall design of this work, it's something different, almost jarring. I feel like the men are going to sink into the ground, and I'm almost ashamed that I'm so much higher than them looking down. Very nice work.

I really like the perspective you have used in this...it makes them all seem very small.

Pint in hand; you wonder what it is they dropped out of: society, life, family, hopes, dreams...

I like how you put them at a downward perspective ... it is as if they have to "climb" to reach that endless top. Excellent work!
