Dont like it sorry, far too trendy and totally meaningless. There is noway that image is a presentation of the balance, cause and affect behind Ying and Yang.

Technical ability is good though.

I'd go with Narate, but I do like it. It is awful trendy and it's not really "abstract"...it's more..."concrete" or "literal" or "figurative" - it's definitely not abstract just because it uses shapes.

Well, the background is abstract - in that it's a meaningless menagerie of trendy circles and lines . The subject (trees with birds) is definitely illustrative, figurative, concrete, and literal.

Feel free to throw out some more adjectives!

It's nice, though. I think it has excellent balance between positive/negative space and tonality. Ugh...former art student speak.

EDIT: On a second look, I'd love to see just the background - none of the black/white abstract shapes, no trees or birdies. Just that background.

Lovely...



A crude selection - MSPaint...

Well the white tree is just the black tree inverted, so u mean the trees are the best bit, i dont want 2 big myself up or anything, but its a bit harsh 2 say 'the rest sucks' cos the majority of feedback i have got not just from here has been positive :p
