This is really nicely done. The only thing is I would have liked to have seen just a little something more in the composition...it looks like its sort of floating in space. But still a pleasure to look at.

    Thank you for your generous review. I had planned on more even have other variants even a painting with a hole meadow and swarms of butterflies but I tought a single feed the contest rules best.

    Thank you so much. It's on of these misty mornings when the sun is out but the mist still sticks to the grass.
Comment from GrampianPhotographic


A simple image, brightly coloured. Certainly attention getting. Good software management. Not my kind of image but I can apppreciate its merit.

    Thank you Phil I appreciate your generous review. It isn't the kind of image I do usually but it was the question of the contest and an excellent exercise with my new program. I may do more of it. It turned out that kids love it and I love to work for kids.

This is a very nice work of digital art. Excellent detail on the butterfly and all the coloration blend very well together to create a well-integrated image.

Love the colors, they are great. Good detail. Like it off centered. Like the blending of green and white in the background. Center of interest great.

This is beautiful! Just love the texture you have created on the butterfly's wings. Sensitively alighting on a yellow flower. The green canvas enhances the centers of interest and looks liquid.Gives an impression of a green pond. Maybe it IS a green pond.

You have delicately created two of nature's delicate creations.

    Thank you very much. It is one of the hazy mornings when the sun just got up and burned the most of the haze but some of the haze is still in the grass and over the water.

Hello there! One of the things that I like about this piece is the composition. I think that there could be a little more contrast to make the butterfly and flower stand out more. I do like how the background flows behind the butterfly and flower.

Good job!

    Thank you John, I appreciate your compliments very much.
    It should look like a painting. Thats what I try for. And it actually is. This program is pretty much like old fashion painting The same tools, the same colors. There is even canvas to chose from. The only difference is you moove your tools with your touch pad and you won't get splattered with paint.

This has a simple serenity to the work Cleo, I especially like thre details you have created in the wing with colours from your pallet to define textures.~

& the details in the creeper
once more a great addition to your portfolio showing all your artistic skills & talents.~
