nice brush usage

Great job of cutting out the pieces, but for me, the uniform lack of saturation (except for the birds which are curiously flying away from whatever is happening here) results in just 'blah' with no real focal point. It's a struggle to make out the hands. Relative to the tree, the balloon seems too small and the birds seem too big.

Thanks DanLundberg,,,,
I don't agree,,, sorry.... It's surreal!!!
And the hands ??? small or big ????? And the waterfall ?????

sorry

The hand is a little too dark, but as soon as I saw this I thought "money tree", so great idea on this = )

Something different again.... I like your colors.... gl author.

Very nice

author.. only if you have time.. think about flipping the tree to enclose around the house and the swings to hold it in.. just an idea.. right now it seems the whole image is spreading out (especially the smoke rings) it's like your eyes are going out ward instead of holding the viewer's attention (IMHO)... Its a really well done chop.. but if the tree was OVER the house it would give you a much more stable composition.. (you know.. the Last Supper.. where everyone in the pic is focused on a central subject.. the great JC).. just a suggestion.. good work here and good luck and great job at managing so many sources...

Wonderful idea. Though I do agree with Drivenslush but I think the author's intention was to hang the swinging benches over the edge of the cloud. Maybe if the house and tree were a little closer together or the smoke were to drift towards the tree, it would close the composition a little more.

Drivenslush and Mad, thx for constructive comments, that's the idea, you let the chairs out of the cloud...

Very cute, but agree that the image is too spread out, with too much negative space.

Nice work

very cool image author...love the bright positive feel on your creation...best of luck

Love it!

wonderful, good luck!!

Slushy's comment nailed it IMO ... very clever work but composition is a little disturbing. Good image all the same.
