Helvi,
A beautiful image of these pink& white Rhodendron given your unique editing techniques to give them the appearance of a painting on canvas rather than a photograph. Artistic composition beautiful framing & lighting taken with superb camera & editing techniques, & sharp focus.

This is such a lovely piece.
The details in your flower are nice.
The smaller buds are very pretty.
What kind of material did you paint this on?
The texture of this looks really cool on your flowers.
Nice piece, thanks for sharing.

Hi Minnie, This is actually a photograph that I turned into a mixed media. I didn't hand paint it. The only thing I did was paint the edges of the flower, buds and leaves, The paint was all computer generated from one of my photographic programs. I used the freeform brush. The textures were added in the same way. Glad you enjoyed what you saw. Thanks for the wonderful review! :o) Helvi

I realized that after I posted the review. It's beautiful.

I always thought of azaleas as member of the Rhododendron family. So, if I understand right, you created a mixed media hybrid from two in reality existing hybrids. The result is a mix breed which has vaguely similarity with the original plants, but looks like a hyacinth with large flowers. Now, embossed and filtered, it looks like a mosaic made of irregular little tiles. Now it reminds of art noveau and art deco decorations on wall and windows. The colors are pleasant. The dark green of the background emphasizes the white and the shades of pink and purple nicely. The small yellow spot draws our eyes to the white flower.

I really like the way you have edited this photo Helvi. You have turned this lovely photo into a work of art, and I especially like the textures. It is also very delicate colors in this photo. Nothing much that can beat the combination of pink and green.
It is sharp and well defined details to be seen in the bloom, and it is also lovely the way the light is falling on it.
The format you have cropped the photo into and the flower has got a very good placement within the frame. Indeed a lovely and well taken photo, and with a very creative edit.

Comment from Nancy Montana
A great deal of work went into creating this piece of art. The result is fantastic. The Rhododendron bloom shows up clearly along with the buds. The original photo must have had good focus and color in order to create the finished product. Well don. Thank you for sharing.

Quite an impressive presentation. The amount of work that goes into this sort of thing is amazing, but the result makes it well worth it.

Comment from alaskapat
Helvi, this is a wonderful work of art ! To begin with the flower and buds were well photographed with good focus and exposure, the white petals with the pink outlining and stamens and the pink buds, outlined in the deeper pink are just beautiful ! This presents as a painting on canvas, it's very well presented, reading your process is also impressive, the end result is gorgeous! Very well presented and an absolute pleasure to view!
