Great present for your granddaughter and so nicely presented. The red dress with the soft cherry blossoms are nicely contrasting with the blues and white in the landscape. Wonderful contest entry.

Love love! Your grand daughter is going to LOVE it to. Great colors. Great detail and interest. I feel all dreams can come true in this image. My daughter is a doctor so it does happen. Sending your grand daughter sweet dreams and the perseverance to succeed. If she has grandpa's strive to be the best I have every reason to believe she will be a doctor or whatever she sets her mind to! Happy Birthday!

A really nice birthday image that is a little like visual poetry. The idea of the blowing flowers is great. A beautiful composition with very nice colors.

Since your granddaughter likes cherry blossoms and also wish to go to Japan, this must be a perfect birthday card. I also think it is truly lovely and I really like the color pallet you have used.

I an especially impressed about how well you have done the cherry blossoms. They are so detailed, and it must have taken you ages to do them. I like the detail of flower petal flying in the wind.

The format and framing is perfect, and the Japanese Geisha has got a very good placement off to the left. A truly beautiful and well done birthday card Mark, and I wish you luck with the contest.

A perfect entry for the contest with the landmark Mount Fuji in the background.

Cherry blossoms and Japan are a perfect combination. How they fly in the gentle wind is intriguing. The combination of colors is harmonic. The golden belt of the girl draws our eyes. The girl with
the red umbrella and a kimono of the same color grippes our attention immediately. Her pose leads our view to the mountain in the background, we recognize easily as the famous landmark Mount Fuji. Your drawing is skilled and perfect composed. The composition is balanced.

Wow Mark! This is such a serious piece, it's beautiful, what a lovely gift for your grand daughter to include the cherry blossoms as well as a part of her dream to visit Japan.its such a lovely and well executed work of art, the gorgeous mountain and its reflection under a sky that is full of life and motion, the cherry blossoms in right foreground give depth to this scene, the Japanese lady is such a beautiful red dress with good sash placed to the left. Very well created with perfect colors and tones . Well presented!
