#138: 270L Aquatic Garden The Mystical Island

Renan Selingardi do Amaral São Paulo, Brazil

Comments

Imposing and well worked layout specially at hardscape. However precisely the hardscape that is causing an inharmonious sensation. Some force vectors are misaligned causing a sense of imbalance and confusion. The foreground is very flat and uninteresting which makes the work lose sense of depth.
The reflexes on the right side is exquisite but not with the same quality on the left side which could be better. A pity that the profusion of colors and textures so well crafted in the posterior plane is not present in planes closer to the observer because this way the work would be more impactful and with better perspective and volume.
But it is very hard work anyway and definitely done by those who knew what they were doing! Congratulations.
