This is so cool!

I see the inspiration but you've made something new here too.
The orange paper is really beautiful, and the structures feel solid because of the clear lights and shadows. Good job.

one of my fav stories about the original is that one of my fav pianists, rachimaninoff, saw a black and white version of the piece and made a whole composition about it then saw the color version and said he wouldn't have made the composition if he saw the original.

there's that same kind of energy i think in this piece, the really stark red feels so poignant that it's downright inspirational with how deep those blacks become otherwise. a really great piece!!!

I'm very flattered! Thank you so much, it means a lot! :D
I rarely listen to classical music despite having a sweet tooth for it, thank you for making me discover Rachmaninoff's composition!
I remember when I first heard about the painting in a hour long essay video on youtube years ago. Listening to someone sharing their love for this artwork through extensive research on its history and influence really drew me in. Since then, I've been seeing this island in so many places, it's pretty insane!
