Paper Flower

Hi Elizabeth, It looks like you spent a lot of time very creative!

Elizabeth, I just love it! But to me it looks like

a very good water-color painting on the most

expensive type of paper. 6/6 Jim

The thumbnail doesn't do it justice, this exudes quality, I can see the time and effort you put in on it, it has lifted this flower without doubt, the colours are subtle which is good and are perfect for this although I'd change the brownish one bottom left for a slightly pinker tone, the composition is good the centre of the flower being just higher than centre and the bg is perfect. Very well done - Richard.

A little over-manipulated for my taste. I'm not sure I think the color selections hold together well.

That's what I do best Patricia.!! I could have kept going on this one. Thanks for looking & commenting.

You don't know how many times I changed the color in that particular petal. Because of the shadow, no matter what color I chose came out "muddy". Thanks for comments. They always help me.

This is really maudlin, and to be honest, not very attractive.

I have to agree that I think you've gone too far on this one. The colors seem completely random and the photoshop filtering doesn't do anything good for it. I like your more subtle ones better like the "Sherbert" one where the viewer isn't completely sure whether its been manipulated or not.
