in love with this..love the execution!

Great work ... just one little thing ...according to the guidelines the SBS should contain an image of the artist you are 'counterfeiting" ... or if you are concerned about copyright then a link to his work. I am sure everyone knows Dali but just in case someone has been asleep for the last 100 years it will help them to see what a wonderful job you have done!


EDIT: Perfect!

Nice work, and I like your spin on it = )

NIce work, very Daliesque

I have to know ... is their a reason all the times are at :22:30:?

22:30 is the time that marked on my Windows clock when I finished the image, but in fact was 5hrs the morning. And the brand image but is actually 22:30 in the afternoon lol .... just an "easter egg "

Cool

Outstanding!!!

Very cool! Love the concept!

Great interpretation author...all elements are handled well...best of luck

If only dali had access to a comp and some graphics software. Nice work

Beautiful. Nice work.

well shuck my corn and call me grits... I do declare I may have just peed myself.. a little (got my depends on so I am fine) .. Now do American Gothic ...purdy purdy purdy please?... hehehe.. super duper perfection.. and the SBS is exhaustingly excellent (I know exhaustingly is not a word but I may as well earn the thumbs down I'll get shortly... hehehe.. seems to be a trend LOL)

Any whooooooo... GREAT JOB!!!... I do back flips if I wasn't so top heavy (very big head) LOL

GOOD LUCK and awesome SBS!!!

Fabulous very peaceful scene author...i see some personal mark on this one...look very soul-ish...well done

so this is how to counterfit art - awesome work

Very, very nice!!! Yep!

Really nice, well done

Wyeth was a very subtle colorist. He was never this monochromatic. The hues of the main subject always stood out from the background.

Wonderful work, cool sbs! GL author

Hey man!! Love this result!!! Best of luck!!! fantastic!

wow! this is facinating!

On it's own it looks like a picture you took and just change the tones and texture, that's how good your blending is. But when you look at the SBS, you can really see how much work went in to this, and now I like it even more, goo job = )

@ Emik - Thank you so much for noticing. Your comment is really appreciated as I was afraid that the work I put into this would not get noticed!

Thanks to everyone for your comments and favs!

Very good entry.

WOW, this is incredible work, author! Great sbs, thanks for sharing, those are some interesting techniques. I think the high-pass adds a sort of sparkle to the foliage. I personally like the subdued tones and I think Mr. Wyeth would be impressed.

Again I want to thank all for the wonderful comments and recognition on this image. I was afraid it would be too suble.

I got really sick last Wednesday with what the think is Bronchitis or possibly Bronchial pneumonia so I did not get the voting and commenting I would like to have done but please believe me that as soon as I am on my feet again will be around to visit your latest art and fav anything I have missed! Hugs to all ... from afar as no-one wants what I have!

Congrats for 2nd

Congrats.., very nice work

Congrats!!

congrats and well done Nancie

This is why an SBS is so important - it's a pain to remember to grab a screen capture when in the throes of creating and tweaking, but only a detailed SBS reveals the intricacy of techniques used (and some great tricks!) This is strikingly beautiful in its subtlety.

As for some comments... last I knew, a tribute was a nod to a style, an interpretation, not an imitation.

beautiful composition author...i love oil on canvas effect...well done

agree with erathion.., nice compo.. gl

Nice tribute author...congrats!!! GL

Very nicely done! A bit more colorful than the original, though...maybe tone down the bright red & try an ajustment layer? Stiil, very good work.

Lovley, so much going on in this painting, must have taken you many hours = )

This contest is fun...and author you've done a GREAT job!!

Lovely work and the recreation is excellent!

Way to go...congrats!

Congrats for 3rd

wow., Congrats for the 3rd place

Congrats Gino!!

very handsome. GOOD JOB!!!!

Very nice indeed...SBS would be better if you showed how you achieved the textures.

I chose "Wet Media Brushes" Then brush # 55, then in the brushes box, I picked " shape dynamics, scattering, and texture ". And thank you for the nice feedback guys.

Lovin' this!! Great work!

Nice

fabulous piece of work author...love it...well done

Thank you so much, your comments makes this really worth while.

Purrrrdy well done! GL author

Very nicely done!! I will have to quiz you on the brushes and how you used them as I am not sure what you mean but I will play with it. Your work with them is super!

Thanks, but really I'm the one that needs to learn about brushes, I just got lucky here. This is my very first time painting from scratch, and the brush I picked doesn't really resemble paint, but more like crayon. My knowledge on brushes and how to use them is very limited.
Again thanks for the comments guys.

Beautiful drawing!

Awesome job! When I first looked I thought it was a painting!

Cheers! Nice chop.

Fantastico the ambiance, the treatment given in the image and realism, we do not know if the cloud mean decreased or increased if the cup! GL

I think I can handle that shot!

Nice interpretation, I like the colors too (in fact the deep colors reminded me more to Dali than Magritte). What you may want to reconsider is the transparancy of the glass. Right now the background is pretty well visible, like you'd look through a normal window. This makes the glass itself kinda flat, one-dimensional. I think because of the roundness and thickness of the glass the background behind should be more distorted. How exactly? No clue, but maybe this image can be a good inspiration http://www.50prime365.com/days/03262005.jpg. Good luck!

great piece of work...very neat and very effective...well done

very very nice work

Great work!
