This is a brand new painting I finished last week. I painted it outdoors in my jungle ranch in Mexico. It is oil on canvas with a palette- knife. Please comment with your opinion. I really want to see some constructive critics. The opinion of my fans matter a lot to me. This painting available for fair auction at my site.
This is an original oil on canvas. I use only a palette-knife for painting. I have not used a brush in this painting. I use only natural oil paint and 100% pure cotton canvas. This painting will be available for auction on www.afremov.com
Each original oil painting by Leonid Afremov is truly a one-of-a-kind unique piece of art. With his artwork in private and public collections throughout the world, the purchase of an Afremov original is a great investment as his artwork continues to appreciate.
Please send me your comments. I love taking constructive criticism. You can leave the comments here on deviant art or send them to my email vitebskart@yahoo.com, or facebook

I have seen your painting in so many places and I was fascinated by them. For a long time I tried to find the artist but couldn't. Now, I so excited to see that you are in deviant art. My day just become perfect.

I love all your works, you're my favorite artist after Claude Monet himself! You're so talented, I love it. Your use of materials is phenomenal-how you can pull that all off with a pallet knife. I really appreciate the depth you added by making the tall building in the back so dark and all blue. Gives the whole painting such life. Amazing work, as usual. One question- what size is this? (The actual canvas size).

This is beautiful! I love the saturation of color and how it makes the night come alive. The reflection of the light in the wet pavement gives an element of realism to your abstraction. So beautiful. It makes me want to visit.

this piece is a little different than usual because it is more detailed and less abstract, but you kept using the bright and rich colors like before. also you kept the short strokes to give the scene liveliness and energy like you always do :) it's a very nice change. i love how your newer paintings are more detailed. this is just me me, but i really like details and realism. in short this paiting is so beautiful it makes me want to cry :happycry: please continue painting!

I am by no means an expert in painting or anything, but the way you create reflections is absolutely stunning. It shows a true understanding of value and creative distortion, and I will never understand how you give them that "glassy" feel. Your use of color is, as usual, nothing short of awe-inspiring. I don't like it quite as much as your more nature-oriented pieces, but I'm partial to them because of how well your technique works with tree leaves and branches. However, I do enjoy the "firelit" feel caused by the vivid color contrast in this piece between the muted blues and violets and the bright yellows and oranges. If I had to pick out a problem with the piece, I would say that the reflection of the lamp-post lights doesn't quite line up with some of the other reflections - for instance, compare to the reflection of the car headlights. The lamp-post light reflections are almost directly under the lamp post, which somewhat violates the perspective.

I always get excited when I see a new piece from you because I can look at one for a long time and keep discovering new details (my favorite = Misty Mood). Your technique is so unique. You will definitely leave a legacy among the great painters of our era.
