This is very interesting to see it's pretty colors that you chose.
I like that they are reaching for the sunshine. I've never seen black art paper before.
Pretty cool I'll try it sometime. Great job good luck in the contest.

Good composition.
I like the design and placement of the flowers.
It has a kinetic feel to them.
And, the background with your use of the metallic watercolors on black paper work well.
Good tone throughout.
Good luck in the contest.

A very eye pleasing image whose beauty comes mostly from the elegant lines and simplicity of the drawing. I wish you the best of luck in the contest.

This is a very cool piece. I never knew there was such a thing as metallic watercolors but then again I never looked into it. I like the effects it presents. A nice entry for the flower art contest. This is unique work of art. Very nicely presented.

Wow metallic watercolors, I never heard of them before. There flowers is a nice choice. Odd numbers of objects are more pleasing to the eye. The black paper lends well to the metallic colors.

Your creation is interesting, although, due to the black background, I thought that this are flowers illuminated by the light of the moon. Anyway, the blossoms are beautiful. They seem swaying or dancing in a gently breeze. The motion is intriguing. The drawing has an attractive 3D appearance. The tall format emphasizes the blossoms remarkably. The flowers are perfectly placed within the frame. The composition is balanced.

'Way Cool',Steph!
Your use of the black paper coupled with the pleasantly unusual coloration of the flower blossoms gives the picture a nice 'Semi Surreal' kind of a look that I like a lot! : )
