Very nice composition. Very strong impact. I love the flow and the movement in your work. I also enjoyed the color blending, the contrasted background also works very nicely. At points I see some yellow flowers not as sharp as the rest. Did you want to have this effect?
Very nice over all. Thanks for sharing, Dimitri

Another amazing piece of work !

This is just incredible.

The detail, the colors, the texture of the fallen tree in the background - all perfection !

Although we continue to pay homage to floral art, there is uncommonly more detail in this work than most of your others; hence, you appear to be venturing more into my own area of interest--realist art. Very well done and thank you for sharing.--Dr. Carlton

What a great work to start the year off with! This is so unique and so very creative in it's presentation! The colors really POP as well as the great textures you put in it.The yellow flowers are outstanding and look as if they were just layed into the virtual ground.The light sources are very well placed.
Great work Shawn and hope you had a good night!

Thank you, Angel! We just stayed home and watched movies. I went to bed about 9 and got up again at 12:30. Came in here to see what was going on. Same-o same-o. LOL. And you? Probably the same, huh? Thank you again for the super review on this :)
