Description Lanscape Imaginaire Avec Trop peu de Figures

Semi-abstract ...I would like more and different figures,
and some more color and activity, but there's a fair amount
of imagery now...

beautiful! it was hard to tell whether it was digital or a traditional oil or acryllic. i like the vagueness, the fact that it forces the viewer to pull things from it through their own imagination. i think that if you want to work on it more, by all means do... just leave this as is and post the next as a variation!

Good suggestion. I often ruin good earlier versions
of things by overlaying stuff... This just grew like topsy
- as most....
many thanks for your comment....

I think that this is great just the way it is...you say more figures and activity........why? as you say this has a fair amount now......
it seems perfect like it is....don't add too much more......it would just be too busy......
I like the yellows and reds.....it looks like the start of a fire....in full view it doesn't but in small thumbnails ....

For some reason it made me think of the Great Wall in China. Perhaps as one would see it in an war dream landscape. I think perhaps it is the color scheme. The red Wall and a blighted parched yellow land beyond. Interesting as always my friend.

so many thanks Erin - I seem to be channeling some
Asian technique just now... images emerging really remind
me of my favs in Chinese and Japanese landscapes....
I got some of those Asian lines by osmosis... a very rough
westernized approximation of some delicate Asian landscape
possibly...

I guess its the repetition and the blur in the middle that get me the most.

imaginary landscape with too few figures... It's still pretty cool, and clearly a landscape. I can see some deliberate repetition on the left and it looks like there's a swamp toward the bottom with some lillies in it. Still more, there are some drops in the middle as though the lens were picking up on light sources... anyway, I think its a neat impressionistic landscape. Its dank and dingey and doesn't have any real subject, but at the same time, you think rain, plants, swamp, not much light - it combines a lot of the sense experience of a landscape without really depicting it literally. not bad.

Have you seen Max Ernst's "decalcomania" landscapes this in some ways reminds me of those

LightSource In reply to MooseQuack [2006-05-14 05:55:16 +0000 UTC]

Yes I have - interesting comparison, but I don't
see the simularity ... my image seems much more collage-y
than Herr Ernst's...no?
