I love the flower.. The purple-ish blue. And the shading is perfect. The plate and the fruit painted on it is where I get stuck. I don't know though.. I think it would be better from a little farther away. Its a bit difficult to seperate the orchid from the plate.

    Thank you for your encouraging comments. This is not a photo. I painted this piece as it is posted after my own sketches of a storm breakage.

A fine digital rendering! Excellent form, shadow, color, and tonal range has created dimension. The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good luck!

Gorgeous orchid , beautifully arranged on the plate, very impressive to see the way you lift the orchid allowing us to know it is placed on the plate but not a part of it, the orchid is such a lovely pale lilac tone with nice tonal variations, the shape of the orchid is very well shown here, the tones in the pattern on the plate compliment the orchid in such a beautiful way. I can see the time and thought you have applied in this lovely still life digital painting, as well as your careful attention to detail.this is absolutely beautiful and such a pleasure to view! Very well presented! My best wishes to you in the contest!

The colours and the fluid motion in this piece are mesmerising. I also love the way you use light to emphasise the main bloom. Fabulous work.
