I want to like this whole-heartedly, Louis, but am afraid the blue objects at the bottom and the green and yellow objects at the top cause my ADD to kick in. I'd like to focus on the attractive woman's profile against a solid black background. Or else put the colored objects into their own layers and then lower their opacity.
MICHAEL, YOUR CRITICISM IS WELL TAKEN. WE ALL HAVE OUR UNIQUE AESTHETICS, AND MINE SOMEHOW ACCEPT THE COLORS DETRACTING FROM THE FACE. BUT, THAT IS WHAT I WANTED TO HAPPEN. IT IS LIKE ALL THE ELEMENTS ARE ON THE SAME PLANE AND THIS PROVIDES AN AESTHETIC VIOLATION AND A VERY TENSE GESTALT. FOR ME, THIS IS A SPOOKY WOMAN AND I WANTED HER CONTROLLED. PERHAPS, I WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. LOUIE NIDORF
