Imagine the peaceful lifestyle among pyramids in comparison to hustle among modern skyscrappers!steemCreated with Sketch.

THE PYRAMIDS, acrylic on canvas, 25 x 35

When I first laid eyes on this image, there was a huge temptation to recreate it and so I got busy.

Tool: masking tape, acrylic paint, paint brushes.
The most challenging was blending of the sky with green, white and blue with a titch of bauxite brown.

The Pyramids were not too challenging I used the masking tape to create the angles but the reflection in the water was such a beast! I donno, I think they are alright but not perfect.

The most difficult part of this painting, though, was painting the lady balancing the basket on her head with one hand, dead center: it took awhile to get the dimensions right. I either painted her too big or too small.

Great art . On a side one a Tip: when you post a new blog select Default Reward Option 50%/50% . Don't select Power up 100% , you will get less rewards over all.

Thank you for the lovely compliment.

Regarding the Power up... I read somewhere that 100% Power up, would entice more people to my blog, also I would gain more steem power. I don't know how true that is.

There's so much info out there and I'm trying everything just to get noticed.

I'm not desperate....he he...but I've also been buying resteem, upvote just to get my posts in front of more eyes, even though I know I'm losing money.

Please tell me your expert opinion.
