A lovely pastel of flowers in a vase. Beautiful detail depicted here with a darkened background that encapsulates the beaty of the art piece.

Maureen, your talent shines brightly as this vase of flower blossoms. All the details work so well, even the lacy adornment. Shadows make this come alive. wonderful presentation. The best of luck in the contest. Ray

A nicely rendered painting of these pretty flowers displayed in such a pretty way. I like the hints of color and the fine details of lace and textures throughout. Your off center placement gives great interest and shows attention to composition. A wonderful entry to the contest, best wishes!

Love the simple vase and the flowers within. The vase reminds me of Delph china. The addition of the lacy tablecloth was a very nice touch to the image! Everything together makes a beautiful, delicate scene.
Love the look! Great entry for the contest! Good Luck! :o) Helvi

This is just lovely. Very well rendered ceramic vase with ornate pattern with three beautiful soft pink flowers , each flower placed at a different angle allowing a good sense of their shape and structure, excellent attention to the details that bring the flowers to life. I like the shape of the vase and its placement just to the right of center, I like the table and the fabric that is gently placed over on the right.
Well chosen and applied colors and tones , beautiful show of the light and shadows.
Very nice entry for this contest! Very best wishes to you!

Comment from Kathy Banich
Nice! I was impressed when I saw the small thumbnail - but with a larger view, to allow me to see, recognize the intricate details in the lace - I'm now a "Wow"!
Your pastels have produced a lovely scene that invokes a feeling of restfulness / quietness though it's soft hues of pink in flowers as well as the antique looking appearance of the cloth (table cloth or napkin) resting next to the vase.
The background of soft mottled grays is very effective and allows the still-life to take center stage in this skillfully achieve painting.
Beautiful work and best of luck in the contest.
