This is an excellent digital work of art. The detail is very well defined, as is the lighting and color. The composition works very well. Great job overall.

Great composition.
The colors are magnificent and complementary.
I love the detail on the flower against the natural green.
Great work. Fantastic use of light.

Very nice and I like the hot HIGHLIGHT in the lower right, which to me...creates depth and separation from the back flowers, plus it balances out the COMPOSITION very well. I like your creativity and flair with the flowers. Thanks for a great post.

This is lovely. Marvelous colors and strong impact on the viewer. I especially like the up close and personal approach to this work. Small areas of green in the background really accent the great coloring of the flowers. Very nice work.

Shawn,I saw this come up on the side for bonus reviewing and the first thought was,"When did she begin to go photgraphy?It looks so very much like a photo it's amazing.The impact is wonderful brought on by colors that really manage to capture and keep the eyes right on it.You made this a reallt strong presentation and I am sure this is not frpm looking at a picture,this is straight from your very well trained artistic mind.Your technique is always remarkable and I can't think of anything I have never enjoyed that you have done.Your talent in digital painting knows no bounds!!Beautiful work Shawn!!
Angelheart :)

The color in those flowers really catched my atention. It is so bright and it glows in the light areas . The contrasts in the picture are very appealing, and the backgound is a lovely green. The digital drawing holds my interest, It illustrated your great creativity and technique.
