Gorgeous! I have to say I just love all the brown tones and soft yellows in this piece. The flowers have such a beautiful flow, and draping the lovely vase with pearls, gives this piece such a touch of elegance. Beautiful composition with grace and style. Katy

Nice job! This is definitely a more interesting still life than I ever did in any art class! What I like best are the colors and the shape of the flowers! The reds and golds work nice together.

Very beautiful image. Has an oriental feel to it. Like the combination of items you chose to combine. Silver colored accents work well against the reddish/gold tones. Spotlight effect in the background brings everything together well. Enjoyed it.

Don't know much about the digital catagory, but it looks like you can be creative to the max. This is a very relaxing work to look at. I love the lighting and the strong composition. Strong visual impact keeps one looking again and again. And the subtle golden color enhances the mood of peacefulness. Great work.

Still life of your flowers, vase and elements are so full of magic. Shading is marvelous and very ornamental if not giving a Oriental look feel that is magical. Very well composed through out Like the way you painted the floral as they sparkle and shine along with the crisp leafs. Easy fix, front center of vase a little washed out Very well done and thanks so much for sharing.

My goodness another beautiful still life! The colors are so warm and peaceful to view. The pearls are perfect. I like the natural sheen on each one. The pearls really stand out. The background is just awesome and really stands out. A lovely presentation, so pleasing to the eye.

wow, that is absolutely gorgous! You are one talented artist, my dear. I love the light and dark contrasts here and those pearls look so real. That point of light on the vase is spectacular. Again, how do you do this? I'm absolutely stunned!

Very pretty. Really like the shine you have given to the pearls and the way the are falling off the vase. Your flowers look great especially like the hints of color at their tips. Nice composition.
