The piece is a very grand example of a chaos to cosmos style, utilizing the nature of the materials to allow for patterning but transitioning it towards a more harmonious structured ideal. It incorporates a strong yet friendly contrast that's natural liquid quality is inviting and intriguing to the eye.
Vision: I believe this piece is not so much planned from beginning to end, but the areas of hues and chroma are more obviously planned to a degree and the images follow. Unfortunately I don't feel that these images are as connected as they should be and it loses the vision of the painting.
Originality: The brilliance of liquid materials is that there is never a full control, it means that no piece can ever really be copied when made by hand. Even without the defining lines this image is one of a kind, it can be simulated but never fully created. By adding the defining lines it allows this style to further prove itself as an individual. By also having more than one image visible it more or less successfully breaks the rules of most images of this style, creating something that is far more original.
Technique: The chaotic technique used here is marvelous and creates a beautiful dance of lights and darks. It incorporates that little bit of black and little bit of white that almost all images deserve. The thing that really brings the image down and distracts is in the transitions between the images. Especially that seen in the dark left hand scene to the middle scene. I feel that the transition is too strong, and doesn't feel as well coordinated nor powerful. Be wary when transitioning in the darker shades, try to make sure that you integrate these stark transitions with an image or in the chaotic point.
Impact: As I mentioned this is a well done chaos to cosmos piece, I believe that in general it really has a strong impact, though I feel its impact would be stronger if it was split into 2-3 pieces, but even overall there is that strong impact and subtle yet strong symbolism to be found in this piece. It is marvelously done and a powerful piece that will keep any viewer glued as they search for the mysteries and patterns that swirl throughout the piece.
Overall: The piece is powerful and really another great example of your work and style. As always you have once more shown your beautiful skill and style perfectly, it is a piece that many I'm sure have and will enjoy.
