Hi Sandi, I really like the colors and the composition overall : )  I can hear the music, taste the beer and feel the vibe of the bar...nicely done!

Smoke Daddy's glows with steeped red and complementary acid green hues.  The dark shadows which eventually fall into full silhouette set the stage for the night scene, but also quiet the visual movement coming from the many contrasting patterns.  The walls emit a flame like smoky pattern- heightening the saturation of the painted silk. The bold grid of the checkered black and white floor is nicely echoed in the divided square windows, containing the otherwise erratic human activity. Often I find text within a genre scene to be distracting, as it pulls a considerable amount of visual weight from the major focal points.  But reversing the neon lettering at the top of the picture is a clever way to slow down the visual read, and tie it into to the scene. The piece entitled Ivory's has a similar condensing of space through articulated texture and deep color.  But unlike Some Daddy's, it has a flatter, decorative type of atmosphere. The compartmentalized pieces work beautifully together, as in a deconstructed puzzle.
