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!
Colored rocks line a pathway toward the other possible physical surfaces to explore. Leading the viewer to investigate is a great way to convey your intent.
The other-worldliness of this piece is fantastic in the strict definition of the word, meaning that you have created a fantasy all your own. Stones seem to rise from the earth-like planet, on their way upward in orientation to the planet, however in contrast, the butterflies are on their own with no real direction, in keeping with the frivolity and whimsy of butterflies next to the violet splash.
The color of the sky, the narrow focus on its curvature, leads me to feel that the scene is a part of something greater, and the atmosphere is contained around the planets.
I have always loves your painting and wish I had the time to spend doing more of my own art.
