This is a lovely artwork love the colors of the poppies. The doily and other props add to the nostalgia of the artwork.

Comment from Anne
This is amazing the way you have done it. You are so very talented. I lie all the things you put in this. I like the way you created the depth in it too. The coloring with all the different shades of brown is beautiful. I like the way you put all the shadows in the background. A very creative and excellent work of art.

Comment from Rustyroy
My reaction to this photo when I first looked at it was how sad that the flowers on the left didn't get the same enjoyment of life as the main flower. Your creativity is very good and I really like your presentation.

another excelent artwork gal with good attention to detail shading & lighting affects super fine details & great initial impact are all cleverly attributed to this picture which has a good sense of age & being in an attic room-well composed & rendered so skilfully deserving of top marks i feel!

Very nicely balanced composition with perfect choice of colors and light. It makes you feel like being in the middle of it. Well done!

Comment from ozzyart
A nice digital artwork. The vibrant colors of the poppies lift the composition. The string of beads and doily add to the story and link with the rest of it with the colors used. I like the forgotten attic feet you have attained with shadowing.
Well done!
