Beautiful artwork.
The flower is intriguing and beautiful! I like the dramatic difference from dark to light. The only thing I might change is removing the shadow on the light side. I feel it is a little distracting. Of course just my opinion! Beautifully created!!

When I brought this take up I was looking elsewhere and saw the image in my extreme peripheral vision and thought to myself, "Why did Jody post a shot of her shag rug?"

This is an abstract on steroids. The Chrysanthemum is well captured with good focus, it is clear, the exposure is correct, The monotones appear natural.

The mixed media efforts are well thought through and provide an imaginative look at the flower.

Glad to see that you have a reliable way to cope with winter. This is a well produced capture, well done... Bob

Oh I love this Jodi! It looks like you've captured the instant it got caught in a combine harvester! Lol
Lovely detail in the flower, and great patterns created in the fluffy explosion. The black background sets the whole off very well. I think the original flower photo was pretty good too! Good work.

Jodi this is beautiful, you have enhanced this mum and gave it the feeling of a painting. I love the back ground from black to a variety of grey creating a feeling of dimension and the shadow works too. Very nicely done. Ray

    Thank you so much Ray! I thought of you while I was creating this one?I used an artistic pallet knife filter to change the photo to a painting and I know you use the pallet knife on your wonderful artwork. Your high rating is greatly appreciated!

A good looking nature image posted here! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us an enjoyable view of that pretty, fluffy bloom. Colours, textures and tones are good. Exposure and sharpness are fine. Well taken!

I like the Chrysanthemum itself which has an abstract look on the flower's left, my right, with the white highlights, but the right side with the beige (designs within the beige are very nice), and especially the dark, which takes away just a tad, I think. It is still different and very nice.

Really pretty flower and the treatments applied work very well. Somehow it makes me hungry for some cotton candy. Good job. Focus is well done and the dark background is great.
