That's the name of the flower, but it's also what I did to it. Some hand painting, a bit of Topaz. Taken a long time ago.

Beautiful painting, Cindy! I love the "spill" or slight overflow of various paint strokes in the image. Definitely gives the painterly appearance to your image. The composition, design, and color all look great. You might want to brighten and add a little contrast to this image if possible. It is a very minor point, but I feel it would make this beauty sing!

Beautiful treatment and eye catching patterns Cindy. Like Ron's suggestions. Like the repetition of threes.

Make your life spectacular!

Thanks Ron. I agree entirely about the brightness/contrast. Looked OK last night. This AM, it looks very dull! I also lost some detail I liked -time for a re-work, I think.

Don't rework too much. Except for the brightness I love the painterly quality a lot.
