I love all your acrylics, especially the water studies, Cristina. This one is particularly nice, but it's hard to chose. You really have it down and you're so prolific!
This is a beautiful, understated work. There is the focal point of the bouy, but the real subject is, as you mention, the play of the light on the water and the effect of the transparency on the rocks. Very nice.
That looks like basically it to me. Great study. I love the crispness of it. I seem to blend too much. Been trying to get away from that lately so I could put out more quality and detail like this. Love the bobbing lure in the water still. Gives a nice contrast and new focal point. Another outstanding work!
It's so wonderful how you paint water. I love all the beautiful colours and the light on the waves.

This is great Crisiina, I love the way that you have used thin layers of paint to give deapth to the fore ground of the painting and pushes the rocks down, Agreat feeling of deapth and movment to the great piece of rt.
I take my hat of to you

I think you have already managed to find your own style. And I think your style is to make this kind of works, colourful, detailed and unusual.Christina Langman 03 Jan 2006
