super informal analysis of random art piece

LINK -- the artist (godbirdart) doesn't want it reposted elsewhere so not gonna put it here. 

The first thing I think of when I see this is -- holy CRAP, the colors! 

They really stand out. They're bold and there's a lot of contrast and saturation there -- but not TOO much saturation. I've seen oversaturated art at FanX and it kinda hurts my eyes. Nothing like that here. It's a really pretty piece. 

A few other notes. 

• The creature is cute, and not in the exact center of the image. Shows a good understanding of 3D space and anatomy. 
• It's interesting to me how a lot of the flowers have minimal depth shading. Most of them are just one flat color -- yet the scene feels three-dimensional. 
• the curvature in the plants, the petals floating in the air, the motion of the distant birds, and the creature looking up into the sky -- They all make the scene feel extremely dynamic and alive. 
• WATER -- I love water and am always looking for better ways to render it. There is some pretty basic shading and coloring for the water here -- it's enough to tell what it is and it doesn't detract from the rest of the piece. 
• for the white body of the creature itself, it appears that the linework is doing a lot of the heavy lifting for the feel of dimensionality. again, this does not seem to be a major problem. I've been in a phase lately of OMG PUT SHADOWS ON IT and maybe this is not an automatic solution!
• clouds make the scene feel peaceful, though it also feels adventurous at the same time. Lighter color at the top, darker at the bottom seems to be a good formula for clouds in general. 
• overall, I am most impressed by the dynamism, color choices, and dimensionality of the scene. I do wonder whether or not pushing the shadows further would enhance or detract from that. It's already a pretty bold presentation.
