Comment from Katy
I think this is extraordinary! The beautiful purples. blues, greens and complimenting colors are simple gorgeous and blend wonderfully together. There is a softness to this that is so appealing and soothing to look at. The composition is perfectly balanced. I just love what you've done here! In my opinion, this is a well deserved six stars. Katy

Love the colours, the composition and makes me wish I could do such good digital painting. I do not have a programme that works to good. You do fantastic work.

Comment from BingoStar
Very Nicely done. All your colors stand out very well and work together and blend giving a very calming effect. Of course the pearls are my favorite to view as they look like little magic crystal balls. I don`t exactly know what is next to the vase but its cool too. Bingo!

That's just a piece of rocky coral they found at the beach, Bingo. :)) Thanks a million for the great comments and excellent rating.

Comment from canonaid
I feel this is a little Dali-esque, and please take that as a compliment. The colours are interesting, particularly around the petals, and the whole image has an air of mystery about it. I like it very much.

Comment from Sandy Poore
What a beauty. Your technique is great. The flower almost appears three dimensional. You have lots of harmonizing colors throughout yet have made the flower the center of interest.

Shawn, your digital art is done so well. I like this one very much. The colors are awesome on this one. The way you blend your colors is visually appealing. Your composition is very well balanced. Your light, shadows and attention to details is well done. Good job. Eleanor

This is very beautiful, the colours are very calming. I love the glass effect, and that the colours are reflected in the background.

Beautiful composition in this piece! I love the colors, the way you have combined them in the blurred background and picked up the pearl essence in the flower.
