  91. Robert Hergane
    Robert Hergane sorry, that is no artwork. its not gonna become a bestselling masterpiece like Picasso.
    and, you've won the showdown because
    you had a big bunch of friends, a lot of persons who have no idea of art.
    its a big mistake to mix-up paintings and photos for a contest, i bet Rembrandt would eventually lose against a silly photo.
    I remain an artist.

    Ekaterina Golubina Hey
    Miriam Sweeney. I like your work, it is definitely interesting art)
    I wondering about the text, what is 'lifting'?
    The horse appears to be moving forward, appearing through a static veil. Why have you use the horse in this sense?

    Labor Robert congratulations!
    you are a good artist
    it's not the artwork i prefer in your own works
    i like very much your drawings I see in your portefolio
    Why oil paintings are accepted with too much difficulties in contemporary Art.I think it's a lack of formation in our périod
    i renew my congratulations!
    Good luck for the future
