I appreciate how realistic everything in this painting appears. The shapes of the flower petals are well defined with great color blending. The background is very appealing and I also think the bulb of the flower has great texture and depth.

A beautiful digital painting of this beautiful blue Hyacinth growing in a special glass Hyacinth bulb growing vase, which allows you to see not only the leaves followed by the flowers but the roots tangled within the lower portion of the blub. Created by your Artist's eye for composition very skilful brushwork & digital painting techniques. Beautiful choice of you colours & their application in bringing this bloom to life.

    Your comments and the golden stars are a great encouragement for me! Your bulb might be a Hyacinth-hybrid. I have a look soon you post a photo of the plant. :o)

This is really pretty.
Beautiful flowers, beautifully painted. The stems and bulb look perfect. Love the way you did the glass bowl. Really great artwork!

I love the Hyacinth!
This is a very well created digital painting of this hyacinth, so very realistic with accurate size , shape and structure, I appreciate the time and thought you have applied here to create the clear glass container to show the bulb with the stem and the lovely hyacinth blooms . I especially like this purple and white color pattern . The purple tones against the green tones are always such a winning combination .
Your background is also very well applied allowing the hyacinth to come forward .
Well presented! This is truly a pleasure to view!

This is a fine looking digital painting of the flower. Very good still-life work. Light and shadows, colours, are very effective and natural.. Thanks for sharing!

Comment from Lucien van Oosten


Overall I think this is a painting that has really nice color balance. The negative space colors accentuate the flowers. Here is one small hic-up and that is the purple there on the left as the grays transition into the darker areas that make no sense to me.
The flower have that impressionistic look to me, which is in keeping with the way the negative areas paint was applied. (it needs to be blended into the dark area, in my opinion)
The glass dish is done with great perfection and is very believable.
Nicely composed and painted.
Just that one minor issue to me, which takes away from the flow of the piece, making it just less then a 5.

Have great day,
cheers.
Lucien

A very good looking entry into the competition posted here! Your fine, full and central composition offers us an enjoyable view of your hyacinth. Like the detail in the petals and stem. The textures and tones you have achieved are nice too. Nicely created!

Lovely artwork of the Hyacinth - mine are just popping through the ground - like the way you have shown the bulb as well as the leaves and flowers. Good colors.
