This is interesting collage. I love the colors and the font you used for "The Yellow Roze of Texas". I would move Emily Morgan to some other location on the image, because in my opinion the typeface and the position makes the image look like a school project. Love the rays! Thanks for sharing.

Very creatively done. I like the artist notes with a bit of history thrown in. Learn something new all the time. Well done.

Comment from Bumbling Amateur


This is a pretty clever bit of expressive art. I like the rose and light rays. What seems out of place to me is the woman's face. I think she needs to be tied in to the main part of the composition better through the use of complimentary colors. Right now there's all this bright yellow with some bright blue and rich red, etc. then all of a sudden there's the pale color/tone of her face. Maybe that's what seems missing to you?

Nice effects with great light rays running through the image! Good narrative and explanation of this image with vibrant shades of yellow running throughout the image! Nicely framed for a wonderful end result!! Best of luck in the contest!

Love what you done here. I only wish your rose were a bit more defined. Very creative and really appreciate you sharing.

I am sure a lot of work went into creating this peace and that it means a lot to some people but i cant say that is is perticularly appealing to me. The rose, which is the subject matter, is not very good and you can clearly see the straight lines where it's been cut out. Perhaps the detail of the rose will be more visible if the rays were toned down a bit. Thanks for sharing.

Unless we experiment, we will not be able to achieve various effects. There is technology to help us in this regard. But human ingenuity makes the tech subservient. I am not aware of the history behind it. But I find that this is an impressive creation. colourful. Eye-catching. All the best!
