I am glad you had fun because it shows and radiates just that. Fun!! The more I look, the more smile inducing details I find. I love paisley and I love your painting.

Oh, please do a series. What a fun piece, Linda. I am still smiling while I write this :). I agree the sun just glows perfectly and the leafy corona is wonderful. So much color and whimsy and fun to look at every element. Excellent notes too letting us appreciate your creative process. An excellent contest entry. Good luck! Ed.

It is very beautiful! I like the butterfly with blue wings. I think you did a good job in the front ground with different plants and flowers. In the background you used a lot of good colors. Good job!!!

You have a wonderful imagination and this is a whimsical piece for The Art from the imagination Contest and a good contender and good luck. A good balance of shapes and textures and tones and one that is uplifting. So much storytelling you get lost in your art work. Such a gorgeous nature piece incredible use of color and blending and shading of colors. I like the movement created in this art work. A creative and talented art work. Thanks for sharing!
