Hi

A nice almost abstract type study that had lovely soft colourations and pleasingly gentle lines. For my tastes the composition would have been stronger in appearance without the upper petal depression area – but still a lovely floral that works well

All the best
Matthew

Fine floral abstract, lovely lines and bright hues. Nice how you made a dark area is the focal point.

Matthew took the words right out of my mouth on this one!  The delicate colours are so lovely and that shadowy depression looks almost like a dirty smudge on the upper petals because it is so different in tone from the rest of the image.
