This is a very pretty flower. It is different and I love the colors. The blue works really well with the yellows. What kind of flower is this? Beautiful artwork. Good luck in the contest!

The Initial impact of this Creative presentation of Color Harmony and
Technique creates a 3D affect within the Center of Interest.
Your Technical Excellence shines through in respect to your ability to gift the illusion that one might be able to reach into your painting and touch the beautiful flower.
From the swirling of the water to the subtle background with the softness of color that seems to fade softly at the stem of your vase and disappears of into nothingness. Wow I am impressed Great work!

This attracted me! Excellent composition following the rules of the golden mean. Simple but effective, great choice of colors with harmonic background. The glass is amazing, play of light and shadow gives it a touch of tree dimensionality. Good luck in the contest, you are absolute winner!

Love the colors and the composition of this. The orchid flower is well done, and the entire thing has nice coloration and interest. Love the offset of the stem in the glass, too. Lovely work!
