Well as always another artistic piece you have here, now this one is clearly a plant in a vase and has lots of color surrounding it, its always looking good with your art style and how you bring abstract alive and well, so nice work here indeed, and I will look for more of your work for sure, so keep making this beautiful abstarct stuff.

~~THINGS TO IMPROVE ON~~
some frames and borders will do this piece some justice.

Colourful Jack-in-a-box

Well, that looks to be a very strange and surreal piece. I have to sayt hat the first impression that I got was of a Jack being released from his box-like prison. Perhaps this leads to some sort of symbolism for Pandora's box and the way that everything bad comes out of there... maybe it's the other version, where everything good dwells within the box instead.

There is certainly a lot to see here.

Really nice

I kind of see two different things, if you just look at the top half it feels like you are looking down at a street and if you look at the bottom half it looks like everything is just coming out of a hat and creating a huge visual area illusion. Pretty nice abstract art since you see two different things or at least I do anyways.

I really have no idea how one improves abstract as it is more or less emotion than anything else. Very nice piece though, you do lots of abstract art!!

wow

For once I can actually see exactly what you painted here. The vase at the bottom, and the flowers sprouting upwards are quite clear. The colors add a nice touch of abstract, but is it really still abstract if you can tell what it is? o_O

The lower left I see a demon smoking a joint, the lower right looks like a zombie from minecraft, and the rest just pretty much looks like flowers to me. The upper left looks a bit like a landscape, but the vase in this picture ultimately makes it very clear what it's about. Doesn't have quite the same abstract feel to it which is usually - what is this to you?

Nonetheless another great painting by you. I wouldn't say it's my favorite, or my least favorite. Probably somewhere in the middle ;) Good regardless, keep up the great work.

Jammin'!

I'm getting a really clear vision of the flowers in this piece. If I'm not mistaken, there's a vase at the bottom, with the flowers all sprouting skyward from it. The reds, yellows and greens really provide a burst of energy that works with flowers.

To be honest, I'm a little disappointed with the shape of the flowers. They seem a little leafy and sharp rather than elegant and curved. It's a bit distracting to me, but it definitely doesn't destroy the piece.

Blues, to me, either represent sadness or confusion, so in the background the color featured so prominently is a departure from what I expect from abstract and expressionism. I'm pretty sure the blue everywhere is either the ocean or the sky, so it makes sense, and it looks very pleasant.
