Jewell this is a beautiful entry for the contest You have caught the essence of peonies and you hit it out of the park. The soft pastel colors and wonderful leaves pull it all together. Sorry late but I was down in Nashville. Ray

    Yes Jewell, We had a ball, ate in the best of restaurants , went to the grand Olde Oprey and the Country Music Museum. Enjoyed the Honky Tonks and spent a day at Cheekwood, so beautiful.

    Who did you see perform?
    I need a Nashville fix. May hit some open mic bars and sing a little too! The restaurants are great. Perfect weather now!

    To me the the best was Don Schlitz, he is a song writer and performer. He wrote "The Gambler", Kenny Rogers big hit. Don is a very talented song writer and has many more on his list of hits. He was on for a half hour. He was my favorite. Ray

There are beautiful portions here such as the fronts of the peonies. The background and gold add to it; however, the blue lines take away a tad. I believe you could bring this contemporary work up to a 5 and beyond.

    You do such beautiful work with drawing and painting scenes, flowers, even realistic. You are gifted in these areas. This work is actually classic in some ways, like coming out of a book with beautiful painting nostalgic.

So much detail in the artwork as the peonies are presented in the soft shades.
You have created the intricate way the petals form curling around one another extremely well.
Nice to view.

Oh my goodness! I love peonies and have never been successful at getting them to thrive in my yard.
This has such an impressive initial impact, these are so very well rendered ,so beautifully arranged within this space , perfect choice and application of the pink tones and background is working to emphasize every bloom.
I can see this hanging in an art shop .
Gorgeous entry for this contest ! Very well presented! Best wishes to you!

A very lovely visual presented here of these roses. I love how you captured their petals. They are very soft and vibrant looking. Composition is very well done and presented. Thank you for sharing.
