  • Dave Moilanen

    Dave Moilanen, about 1 year ago

    Wow Ruthie! This is splendid! A well fitting title for this piece I must say. It reminds me of a city scene with some hard reality thrown at you. Makes you feel like you are trying to make sense of it all (perhaps out of one’s life?). You will always be the Queen of Abstarct Ruthie! God Bless you!

  • Ruth Palmer

    Dave! What can I say? You are a dear friend and an excellent arteest! I truly appreciate your kind words. You are not the first to say that this looks like a street scene. I don’t see it but a lot of others do. Thanks for your feedback!

  • nick board

    Hey! a bombs gone off. Reminded me of an IRA bomb in the city.

  • Kim Roper

    Kim Roper, about 1 year ago

    Love the tones, the blues and earthy colours work beautifully together, I see a streetscape in this, buildings and windows, cables and street lamp, all done in a wonderful abstract way. Superb!

  • Ruth Palmer

    Ruth Palmer, about 1 year ago

    Hi Kim! Thank you very much! Looks like “street scene” it is then LOL! Glad you like it and good to see you!

  • mare

    mare, about 1 year ago

    Wow Ruth – This is a painting I will need to return to again and agian. It has such depth. It is both abstract and representational. Love it.

  • Carlo Cesar Rodillas

    Carlo Cesar Ro..., about 1 year ago

    I love abstract art especially this one! I’m an abstractionist too! More power Ruth!

  • Alvin de Quincey

    Alvin de Quincey, about 1 year ago

    Isn’t it interesting, abstracts either speak to you or they don’t… and this one does. Browns aren’t the colours that i usually like or see used very well, but, don’t they work well here with those beautiful blues.
    Yeah… it said street scene to me straight away, but i love everything you’ve done to it.
    When i finally sell my house i’ll be back to buy a big print!
    Hope you sell a bucketful!

  • Martin Derksema

    Martin Derksema, about 1 year ago

    Wowzers. This is a great one. Makes me think of all the beautiful cityscapes I saw in Oz. I love the movement and rhythm in this painting. And it all fits so good together. A fav within my favs. Just back from Oz. Saw a lot of great additions in your portfolio … great to see you keep on swinging!

  • Julie Marks

    Julie Marks, about 1 year ago

    Extraordinary abstract. The colors and texture are amazing with a wonderful mix of vivid imagery that draws the viewer in to project his of her perceptions. Abstracts are my favorite form of art and I ask the viewers to tell me what they see especially in my bark and stone abstracts. The world has become a huge Rorschach and the imagery in nature when we take the time to look presents us with a wide array of iconic visions. If you want to see my bark art and other abstracts, my work is in my gallery artwanted.com under the artist Julie Marks. You can also access my portfolio
    artwanted.com/masterofthemaze. This is an elegant and stunning abstract and I hope to see more of your beautiful work.

  • Helen Bascom

    Helen Bascom, about 1 year ago

    Ruth, this is a masterpiece of abstract art. It appears to me to be a city street on an icy wintry day, the power lines criss – crossing the sky, the dirty sidewalk, the coldness of the buildings made even more bitter by the bitter cold. Wow. This is fabulous.

  • Ruth Palmer

    Ruth Palmer, about 1 year ago

    Thanks so much Helen! I didn’t see it because I don’t really think about what I’m painting while I’m painting it so there was no preconceived idea behind it. Everyone seems to see a street scene though and I see it now too. I’m glad you like it and appreciate your comment very much!
