I was just wondering who would get my last 6 star review, then I saw your beautiful bouquet! I thought it was gorgeous!!! Looks like you did a lacy tablecloth to go with your bouquet. Love the way you did the lace! You gave it a wonderful sheer look. Love how the vase picks up the colors around it to i a soft reflection. Very Pretty My Friend! Good Luck in the "My Beauty Contest! :o) Nancy

This is a beautiful painting Jewell!! You definitly feel your love for florals in this piece. The vase seems to glow, and really reflects warms. The dark cooler purples contrast this yellow warmth nicely. Nicely arranged and placed within the frame. I like that you added depth by showing the edge of the table in front, definitly better than a straight on view. My only critique would be that the vase isn't 100% symmetrical, it doesn't take away from the painting at all...I am a perfectionist thats probably why I notice it lol. A great entry for this contest and I wish all the best! Well done!

Very beautiful entry for this contest ! The round vase is perfect to display this stunning arrangement , the colors you chose are perfect and in such harmony , they compliment each other so well. It's such a nice variety of the blooms and I see the thought you have applied here in their details, the greenery is also very well created and placed within the arrangement .i like that you placed some of the purple roses on the table on both sides of the vase. It's also impressive the way you show the lighting here.
The neutral tones in background emphasizes the floral arrangement .
Well presented ! Best wishes to you !

This is a beautiful flower arrangement, and I especially like the very lovely color pallet you have used.I also think the table cloth and vase are really well painted.

All the flowers are done paying a very good attention to details, and with a very good use of high lights. Your brush work is smooth and accurate.

The format works well, but I think the balance of the composition would have been even better if you had added more negative space at the top. Still this is a lovely and well done painting Jewell, and I wish you luck with the contest.
