The colours of this picture are amazing. I really love how you have made this flower and the leaves look real. You have done a really good job and glad you shared. Thank you

Comment from Robin Gillow


Knowing your work as well as I do; I must be honest and say, I feel this is not your best piece. On a general front it is OK, but it seems to lack that special something that jumps out at me, that I am used to seeing in your work. You are welcome to disagree. Robin

Well executed Art
Excellent brush stroke very good highlights
The colors are well chosen dept of fields are in very well created with the dark tone what is giving this rose a 3 D effect excellent way of fading the leafs
Framing excellent
Good story of the first hand rose

Effortless, timeless ,image.
you have presented for reviewing on this occasion.~
A first class Image, so artistic & truly creative.~
The flower you have painted & presented & presented has an aura of innocence & purity of nature.~The strokes are open & add a touch of boldness, but a pleasing effect for me.
The expression of exquisite elegance, which nature graces us within each day.
Jinni.~

Comment from sandysartstudio


Ah! like this one better than the last one I reviewed as you have opened the background up by taking the back leaves away. i have been away in Darwin on holidays so have been off line. The only suggestion would be to tone in your white edges so they don't just sit on the edges. Very nice indeed. How did you liked working with fast drying oils? How fast do you mean when you say fast. Sandy

    Many thanks for your review. The fast drying oils mean they are touch dry in 24 hours and you only have to wait 3 months to varnish instead of the usual 6 months. I like them and you can mix with regular oils if you want.

A very colourful compossition of a single rose.
Well-lit which provides good detail of the bloom and tones of individual petals.

Comment from Rockdoc


Very different effect in oils and nicely done for sure with plenty of details and contrast with the colors. Nice work Suzanne.
