What do you think of this painting?
You want a legitimate answer? Good for you!


The background is reminiscent of some of Van Gohg's work, particularly Starry Night...I like it. The colors are vivid, and well used. The perspective needs just the tiniest bit of work...Alice is there, but does not seem to be a part of it all, only like a sticker on top of it all. The Cheshire Cat, also, is a bit not in it. Again, thats a perspective thing. It could be that there is nothing in the foreground of the painting...you have some nice depth going in to the composition, but have left out anything happening in the foreground...even if its shadows and suggestions of things, it'd help to make Alice and the cat part of it, not on top of it.


I LOVE that you didn't give her a face! Whether or not it was by design is something else, but I simply love it.


I'd have like to have seen a bit more movement in the picture...maybe different angles on the mishrooms instead of them all being at the same "tilt"....


Very good, all in all...well done...congrats.
Reply:It shows that you have a lot of talent. Have you ever thought about becoming an illustrator? If I were you, I鈥檇 keep learning and practicing.

Reply:I like how your painting is colorful; colors are appealing to the eyes. It's not very catchy, there doesn't seem to be a focal point or anything to draw someone into the painting. But good job!!

Reply:I wish it had a focal point, but I like the balance of cool and warm colors. My only really negative comment would be that, instead of interpreting "Alice in Wonderland" in your own way, you used Disney's Alice and Cheshire Cat. That could be considered plagiarism, and I think you show that you have WAY more creativity than that.
Reply:I like the composition, as someone already said you were clearly influenced by Van Gogh Starry Night, for your sky. However I disagree about Alice not having a face, from my experience as an art teacher when someone doesnt paint a face it is because they either cant paint faces or they attempted to and it went wrong. I really like the mushroom and the sizr of the characters in relation. well done
Reply:You're colors are nice but the idea is way too much of a rip off of what other people have already mentioned. I like the cat though, he was my favorite. The mushrooms are too reminiscent of bad black light posters. The painting itself is technically poor but it seems like you're trying to get somewhere...good luck.
