Beauty of Spring
Spring flowers for Before and After Contest10 total reviews
Comment from Linda Wetzel
Your before and after images clearly are the same but transformed, thereby superbly meeting the criteria for this contest. Your after image reminds me of a Wedgwood porcelain box with the flowers being the relief elements. Well done!

Hi Linda, I feel honored that you compared my work to a Wedgewood piece. I think Wedgewood is beautiful and hadn't even thought I was creating in that mode. Thank you for the lovely review! :o)
Comment from alaskapat
Very well presented before and after images, the first one shows how this flower grows and gives a sense of its surroundings, it's well focused, clear to view , well composed with natural colors and tones, beautiful pale blue and white blossoms, the second one brings the image into the artistic realm with a blue background the flowers and supporting greenery beautifully arranged and framed with a blossom in each corner, it's beautiful and reading your notes, I greatly appreciate the effort ! Well presented, best to you in the contest!

Comment from Nancy Montana
From a pretty photo to a card ready to be sent! What a transformation! Plainly a tremendous amount of time and effort went into producing the finished product. My hat is off to the artist!

Your welcome
Comment from ArtistCarl
Quite nice actually. I rather like the overlaid look on top of the same kind of background as in the finished painting. I also enjoy looking at three different image sizes within one picture. Can't think of a better way to present this and retain the visual interest you have here. Reasons for my five star vote.

Comment from El-mundo
A wonderful rendition and transformation of this floral image and a great use of the tools at hand, with a good descriptive narrative, and a well composed end result as well as overall piece. Clearly a lot of work went into this as well as thought and imagination - great work and best of luck in the competition! :)

Comment from michiganmike
It sounds like a whole lot of work, but I think the result is worth it. A fine shot with great colors and beautiful blossoms. I don't much care for the corners though. Best of luck in the contest.
