Comment from Molly Torsvik


Rose is a beautiful flower,
Having a lot of fragrance
Growing among the deadly thorns,
It has never lost its beauty.

Being under the care of sun,
Getting the power from the sun,
It never fades but glows brightly.
Becoming itself a good present to the sweet-heart.

Keeping the negative energy away,
Bringing a positive attitude towards us,
What else do we need from it?
It just offers a good love to us.

Offering rose at the feet of God,
Rose itself feels proud of performing,
Its duty for the sake of Lord,
Taking the last breath from this world
Gives it a nice farewell.

Beautiful painting Maureen of these pink roses as they are catching the rain drops. The black background is very effective and so nice with the pink on the rose petals,
Best of luck onthe contest

A very attractive piece Maureen. The droplets of water add so much interest and intrigue to the work. The rule of 3rds (having 3 roses instead of two) also promotes interest. The dark background that you used creates a nice contract to the subject at hand. The introduction of green in the leaf at the bottom offers stability and balance to the frame. Very Pretty!

The vibrant pink painting in pastels on a rainy day creates a visual symphony of nature's brilliance and your artistic skill. This is visually exciting. Good luck in the contest!

This is a beautiful piece of artwork. The drawing and accuracy of the shape of the rose buds is delightful and the color is enticing. The raindrops add interest. Good luck in the contest.

So lovely and this is a pretty unique and distinct way of showing the rain drops. I love the clarity of the layers of the petals and the realistic colors that you have choose. The dark background made your roses stand out in an excellent manner because of the striking and contrasting contrast. The vertical frame is appropriate. A lovely scene and you have painted this with excellence.

Perfect entry for the painted pink art contest! I don't know about you, but I rarely use pink in my paintings.
You have utilized it well in this beautiful painting of pink roses. They're quite realistic. Really nice

A good looking image posted here into the competition! Your fine, full and appropriate composition offers us a very enjoyable view of beautiful blooms being rained on. Colours, textures and tones are good. Nicely drawn!
