Nicely done abstract art. Cool tone colors with a warm accent holds the eye on little yellow flowers. Interesting technique and textures make this one very special! Good job!!!

Comment from Envision


I like the slight impression of flowers and leaves mixed in with all the colors. Your technique sounds fun and creates attractive shapes and textures. Your color combinations are nice as well.

Simply lovely! The colors are peaceful yet full of energy and the blue has a certain fluid motion about it. I wish photography could "transfer" to the viewer the actual texture of your paint. Very nice!

A beautiful picture of your imaginary garden as if seen though a hole in the fence where it's the beautiful colours & light are what the eye first sees, before each flower comes into focus. Created with an artist's eye for composition beautiful choice blending & application of your colours in bringing this scene to life. Good luck in the contest.

Very nice semi-abstract image to depict a garden scene. Nice colors that have been well placed. Te piece include flowers , vines, greenery and water. The slight amount of lining in the mage helps create shapes and images. Well imagined and executed.

I think this is a really nice and imaginative picture, the way I like abstracts, with definite and easy to interpret features.The colors are beautiful, a nice combination that blend well.
Good luck in contest.

Hi there and thank you for sharing your beautiful Secret Garden. I love the soft pastel hues that make your garden sing.. the pink floral array in the centre catches my eye and sends me exploring through your garden of joy.. . Love the brush strokes used to render a selection of the colourful display.. you have cleverly blended the bunched flowers together using the straw to blow the paint and I like the outcome.. Its spontaneous flow has given rise to many and varied shapes and I love the way they merge together with a delightful visual appeal.. The soft mauve hue is complimented beautifully by that pastel blue tone that surrounds it. The layering of colours really offers great textural value and gives the secret garden a feeling of depth and density as I explore the exquisite display.. The richer dark blue hue gives the appearance of pathways between the garden and as my mind's eye wanders along I discover luscious green foliage with a pretty selection of yellow flowers popping up to say hello. The lovely reddish pink splashes of splendor stand out brightly and offer their refreshing hue, bringing a nice feeling of balance into your scene.. The creamy white shapes contrast well amid the colour around them and help accentuate the brighter hues... Together the pastels flow and meander through the garden bringing harmony and joy to the mind's eye. thank you for sharing this delightful secret garden. A place to relax, enjoy the beauty and lift the spirits.. this has been a true pleasure to review. cheers mel
best wishes in the contest

You've done it again. This is a very lovely painting.
I love how the flowers are under the blue paints.
I can see myself laying on the ground and looking up at this above me.
Great painting, thanks for sharing.
