Most of us are too busy to try to both offer you advice and try to figure out what advice you want... Could you please be a bit more specific? What is this supposed to be a painting of? Is it intended to have reasonable perspective or realistic lighting? Is there some message or is it just a random collage of objects? etc etc etc.

Hi Caktus,

Is this for the surreal competition out of interest? I think as you've gone quite far with the details you should stick with the current composition and just concentrate on your lighting, which might help bed the selection of objects down into your environment. I noticed you already have a heavy shadow from your wooden structure so I think maybe you should apply this to everything else (smaller objects, computer etc)- perhaps fading the shadow off the further away you get from the object. I also though it might work better in a portrait format, and it might give you the opportunity to paint some cool surreal clouds?

Overall I'd just get the light source and shadows nailed and I think you're getting close to finishing. There are some issues with perspective, but it may not be worth fixing those now that you are so far along with the piece.

Hope u dont mind but I quickly painted in some shadows and opened the sky up a bit more, maybe it might give u some ideas. Anyway goodluck!
