  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.
  • We hope the site problems here are now solved, however, if you still have any issues, please start a ticket in Contact Us

Hey The washy looking version with the boy in the foreground is watercolor and the other is acrylic on canvas. The acrylic still needs cars and figures added. I was trying to emulate watercolor with the acrylic version and this is as close as I can get. IMG-5105.jpg IMG-5118.jpg

Also saw a while back your post of the water paintings was going to comment but i just got busy and i never did. But on that i though the water needed more reflecting of the light to not look so solid.

I like the look of the watercolor. However, you have a perspective issue going on.

The figures and cars on the left side are dwarfed by the figure on the right.

Interestingly, on the left side everything works together. And on the right side everything works together.

If you treated each half as a separate work it would be fine. In fact, you could put in one or two more of these slivers of life style paintings and frame it.

Great observations. Thanks for the feedback and graphic. I knew i had a perspective issue but was hoping if i just enlarge that front car a lot it might solve it. The two figures on the left might work as is since they are more left of center and further away from the viewers perspective but the car (s) are definitely too small.
