Painted over my photo in Corel Painter. Blended the plant painting with a sponge like painted layer to get splotchy look. Wild roses are blooming now in my area.

Nicely done, as usual, Jerry. Very delicate with nice textures. One little thought- I might soften the bright center a bit or perhaps give it more texture-just my taste and a very subtle difference. Really lovely, anyway.

Gorgeous watercolor Jerry -- the overlapping colors are very convincing.

I like this a lot.
Mostly because I wouldn't know where to start!

Nicely done Jerry! A lovely simple feel to this one - very soft and pretty with nice petal texture. Just one thing, I would be tempted to give a more 'stippled' effect to the flower centre instead of the flat area.

I have been thinking how pretty the wild roses are in my local area when walking the dog, so must be at the same stage as yours.

The photo for this was taken while walking our dog :)

Love the prism-like colours, and the bg especially. I echo Carol's comment about a more watercolour effect for the center.
