Thank you for your kind and encouraging review. This was my first attempt at layering and enjoyed it so very much.

Comment from Envision
The colors are very nice and the butterfly turned out really well. I like the addition of green on the wings. The cosmo has some nice textural lines that stand out. I think the clouds made for a nice background. Very creative!

Thank you Envision for your encouraging review and your critical eye. I debated to use green or not. As you see green did win.

Comment from Life is but a dream.
I would like to thank you for your notes simply because I can learn from you. I cannot enter my own contest because I'm restricted by my knowledge of the kind of work you describe...again thank you.

I like this piece a lot, primarily for the colours but what seems to push this over the top is the hues of green that add action and movement to this piece.

This is artistically done...abstraction, yet reality seen...just lovely.

Dear Life, thank you so very much for your encouraging review. I don't think myself as a teacher for this was my first attempt layering and superimposing colors and scenes. I learned myself by trial and error. I really debated to or not use green. I took a shot. I loved working with these 2 colors for they are my favorite. It turned out well by luck and it will be a Christmas gift to my sister in laws. Blessings my friend and Thank You~
