That is a very pleasing photo both to the feelings and to the interests. Great distributions of textures and combinations of colors.

Its extremely colorful and I am amazed at your knowledge and experience with mixed media. It has a sense of a happy story to follow. I could even see it as the cover art to a children's book.

Comment from Eleanor Perrotta


Wow Cleo , looks like you have put a lot of work into this one. Thanks for the notes. I did not realize it was a mirrored effect which works well with this image. Great idea. Your colors are beautiful with birds and flowers. All the wonderful signs of summer. Great visual impact. Eleanor

This is so lovely! I really like the effects you have been able to achieve with this. The mirrored image for this presents so well. The colours show up so well and the composition is splendid! Awesome eye appeal!

Comment from miamia


Another fantastic work of art here. The artist put a lot of love into this one, that's clear. Great imagination with color. Birds and flowers added give it that little extra something I look for in these. I like tha tspot of yellow in bottom foreground. Thanks for your patience and artistic temperament and for sharing.

    Thank you a lot. You are right, you have seen the lady before but in a different dress. I was planing to wait some until I post her again but the picture I had planned for the contest isn't finished.
    Thank you also for the good wishes. The same to you.
reply by Surmed on 15-May-2009
    Yeah, but i think we are not allow to post same work again, even heavily edited, this is what TOM told me :D
reply by the author on 15-May-2009
    I never heard of this. I often have seen this before. I know you cant post the same photo or work in any other form. But this is not the same photo or work. That is is just a cut out. The digital compositions what work with public domain probably couldn't exist without using the same cut out pictures. The girl is not even exactly the same picture. I painted her new. I can't paint exactly the same twice, truth I would count it as similar. How I make a series of book illustrations when I can't use the hero again? I will contact Tom and ask him about this.
    thank you for telling me anyway, however it turned out because i would have run in a lot of trouble since these picture is part of a story and I was going to post more of the dancers.
reply by Surmed on 16-May-2009
    Well, What i heard, i shared with you :)

    I was to busy ans than to tired yesterday but I will contact Tom. I tell you of the outcome. If that is true it would limited us a lot. You couldn't even use your gorgeous salt mine as background or you famos sunsets.
reply by Surmed on 16-May-2009
    I don't use my work twice, since i got a message from Site, Salt mines, you can check the profile and feel the difference, and so the sunsets. Thanks.
