maybe just the dancer could have been "softened" and leave the horse the fantasy that he is. i do like the concept and the bright colors in the image. you folks have such fun!! LOL shu

Thanks for the comments. I was just trying to get something in under the wire for this challenge. And I do agree with you. Thanks. This is what this list is supposed to be about originally...to help each other or rather that was what Sky indicated to me when she asked me to join it.

I like that the foreground figures and the background have similar movement. However, unless you wanted them to look like paper cutouts pasted on the bg, you might have softened their edges and added consistent shadows and highlights.
Or, you might have rendered the ballerina and bg more in the style of the carousel horse.
Or you might have "grounded" the ballerina with shadows and lights to make a transition from 3D bg to cartoon horse as a comment on ballet.
So it would help to know what your intention was in creating this image. >PJSvBFCM
