I love this theme but it is a hard one for me! :cool: Dan, I really appreciate your time in judging this week.
I tried to get the look of watercolor on brown paper but couldn't really find a good way to simulate the brush strokes. I know that Dan will say "use a brush", but I'm not that good at it! Hope you like this attempt. :)
Kerry, You knocked it out of the park! Excellent look for the theme. The chop could probably be a deeper red but we'll have to wait for Dan's call on that. Great job!!:)
Very nice Kerry! Nice bamboo even if it doesn't look brushed:). A cupla suggestions, I think that I would like to see the calligraphy parallel with the edge of the frame and maybe moved over to the left a bit. And, the chop color is too pink for me, I would make it a deeper red. The chop color seems to be a little bit of a problem this time around!
BTW, are the mods in the contest?
Thanks Dan! Mods are not eligible. :cool:
Excellent composition, Kerry. Great mood here. Love the colors and the light on the bird.
I see the blue in the chop now, here's a better version. Thanks! :cool:
Kerry, Adding the bamboo was a great idea and really balances out the composition. Love the lettering - Another creative idea that works well.
Nice repost Kerry!!:)
Kerry,
Beautiful pose and perch. This fits the theme so well............Delicate and peaceful feel to the image.......well done.
Love that repost, Kerry! I thought the bird looked a litte dark in the OP but the repost takes it over the top for me. You placed everything perfectly - comp is spot on!
Love it Kerry. The egret is posed nicely and your placement of the bamboo and text is perfect. Love the tone too.
Beautiful work, Kerry! Very balanced composition, all the elements flow together perfectly. I love the sepia tone. Very well done!
