Caribbean Dream by Leonid Afremov

Gorgeous. Absolutely gorgeous. You're style never ceases to impress me. The emotion and thought that is placed in every stroke can easily be seen in this piece. Water can be difficult to represent in a painting, yet you have pulled it off wonderfully, especially with how the suns' rays reflect off of it. Anyone who has ever been to a beach, whether at sunrise/sundown, would be warmed by this...it's simply amazing how you can recreate these locations (with the assumption that you have seen them) onto a canvas in such a way. And even in the likelihood that someone hasn't visited a beach, they could probably 'smell' the salty oceanic scent. So again, well done!
