swing me a love song

This piece is absolutely gorgeous.

You use the color very much to your advantage. The fading creates an almost dreamlike quality which draws viewers in (it certainly drew me in).

The flecks give it a perfect feel, like the viewer is, in fact, at the ocean, that water is spraying up into their eyes. It's a wonderful effect.

The one thing I would say is that the dark spots of the swing, and particularly the shadowed part of the wood, makes the swing seem to stand out as something transported from a different picture. Of course, it should stand out, but even just a little softening in the darker places on the swing would help it seem less out of place.

Whether or not you change it, it is still an absolutely fantastic piece, absolutely gorgeous. Great use of color, fading, and most of all creativity. The title is perfect, the piece is beautiful. Great job!
