Enjoyed your text. The painting itself rips me back to the 1970's when I wore platform plastic shoes, watched the Smothers brothers and chased my bride through the house. This is a happy, happy painting that I enjoy looking at and enjoy the remembrances of starting my married life that is now on year 46. Reasons for my five star vote.

This is definitely a whimsical garden. Full of all sorts of flower, and a butterfly not to mention the leaves. The smile on the sun lets you know that the garden is a happy one as do all of the bright colors. The choice of more pastel colors for the background just accentuate the bright colors of the garden.

Your sun is AWESOME!!! I can just feel the rays beaming so bright. A beautiful array for garden epic filled with butterflies and flowers and bits of fantasy. So creative and well balanced. I wish you all the good luck in the contest.
And if I loose big time like only get one vote i'll send my dragon over to sit in your garden 'cause he'll be crying. :D yours is a really strong contender.

This is a very unique painting. I like all of the bright colors and the creative design. That sun shining bright in the corner is perfect and all of the flowers look so unique. The patterns and shapes in that butterfly are fantastic as well. Just very creative all around and you did an amazing job with this composition. Well done and thanks for sharing :)
