A fine and delicate change of pace, Pat.

Very good choice of mixed media applications. The fine details of the petals stand out and highlighted by the painterly effect.

Contrast and lighting are even across the scene. I am most impressed by the subtle contrast between background and the center of interest - its Smokey, mysterious and yet benign.

To get such realism from a digital capture means the camera image must have been a pip.

The diagonal positioning within a tightly cropped frame makes eye contact immediately.

You have an eye for floral imagery ... Bob

So exiting to see this tulip blooming already even if only in the vase.
Excellent color and detail and great choice of a blue by.
Pat, thank you for sharing.

    Thank you so much my friend! I love tulips and always grow them indoors during the winter months!

You already have tulips? Could it be a sign of early spring? It's a beautiful image. The bicolor tulip is very well-focused and the greyish background really off sets it and helps it stand out.

The combination of capturing a real-life tulip in a water bowl and adding a slight oil paint filter and smoothed background results in a beautiful and unique image. The pink and white colors of the tulip stand out nicely against the smoothed background, making it the focal point of the piece. The use of a soft natural light is also a nice touch and adds a soft and delicate quality to the image. Your love for tulips and attention to detail are evident in this lovely piece of art. Great job, Pat!

This is a wonderful presentation of a single tulip flower.You have framed it well. The light and shadows, colours and composition have worked out well. Good effort!
