[QUOTE="TheOLdGuy, post: 116505, member: 878"]Brad, I didn’t comment on the last set. Felt I had nothing to add. For this pair I will, only because you may want reaction from one with no formal training or strong experience in art. What might catch the eye of that type and perhaps prompt a sale. [B]A[/B] - actually hit me hard. Really hard. My head jerked back a few inches. And that was a 7 x 10. What would twice the size have done? Very strong. One immediate thought was, “That artist is talented and certainly has the ability to grab and hold your attention.” Overall, I admire the talent. Would I want it on display in my home? No thank you. It does not fit. It’s TOO strong, would dominate any room. Would I buy it for someone else. Love to, but really no one I can think of. The second copy of A. – too bright. The darker #1 more “ominous.” FYI, if helpful. I have never seen such a structure(s) in real life. Scroll down to [B]B.[/B] [U]UH! NAH! Dull[/U], not as talented. Pale pastel, unrealistic coloring. IF A had not preceded it, I may have had a different reaction. Then I scrolled down to Gila’s opinion. She said what I would have if had her talent. Other posts also added to my education. Hope that is useful to you.[/QUOTE]
