Trying not to repeat what the other reviewer said...

But I have to admit the elements you've chosen are so appropriate! the pink you used for the splashy looking goo looks like a melting brain and the angles... the vertically placed horizon blended with the view you're looking through contrasts well which gives this flowing in air feel. The pyramid resembling pebble towers suggests magic and supernatural power and the floating rocks suggests the viewers that they too, are defying gravity. The focal point can easily placed on the distance sun and even it's so far and so tiny you feel like you're sucked in there that creates movement to every element in this piece.

Well this won't be a critique if I can't help you improve right? The one thing that bigs me is the lighting of the rocks in the fore ground. Everything else seems so real, the rocks gives seem so misplaced and... fake? Also because the cracked land is a GREAT element it lacks the energy the rest of the scene has. Maybe having the pink fluid thing flowing between the separated earth; even having some trickle down the crack could've made more movement to it. Also having the rocks play more of the anti-gravity feel would've been cool. Having them fall into the crack, or at least tipping over the edge; being forced off the ground; floating with the butterflies, etc.

Overall I LOVE this piece!
