A very beautiful picture. Love all of the details you provided. The flower and butterfly look like photo quality. The colors in the picture blend so well

Very beautiful Shawn, you must have teamed up with Ducille to get a piece of the Marsh, lol. I love the lavendar flowers, of course I do!! The sweet silver butterfly is a nice contrast with the cattails and march grasses. Shirley

    Oh, well! LOL. I certainly hope you don't melt. With temperatures like that, you better drag out the slip-n-slide! :)))

This is beautiful! I love the composition especially! The butterfly and flowers are gorgeous, and I really like the texture of the flowers, especially in the top left corner. The colors are pleasant and soothing to look at, as well as the entire image. Wonderful artwork!

This is so lovely Shawn! I love what you have achieved with the use of the digital art for this. It presents well and the butterfly is glorious on the purple flower. Your technqiue working with the detail is excellent! Love the bit of water in the foreground with the reeds as well. Makes for a wonderful composition.

Good title. Subject well presented. Nice that you have the butterfly. Depth perception came across to me. Colors are vivid and in harmony. Enjoyed this.

This is very realistic. I love the soft colours. The yellow grass adds a beautiful touch and the water is just so beautiful. Everything about this pic is just stunning.
