Re: Do we need more flowers ?

Palms1, you always do beautiful work!
Your water colors are the best of the best.

Here's my fun using Paint Shop Pro. (Added per request.)
Rotate: Left.
Mesh Warp: To enhance flower bouquet top.
Geometric Effect: Circle.
Crop: Removed top portion.
Color Change: To match background color to circle.
3D Effect: Buttonize to chisel frame edge.
Border: To extend frame.
Warp Brush: To extend pedals into frame.

You can never have to many flowers, nice image. Painted the background and used Impressionist on the flowers.

Thanks John. Was afraid that another wax would get me flamed, so I added "the twist". lol

CJ that has a nice vintage feel, and like the outline being in white

Re: Do we need more flowers ?

Amica the first one is very pretty, but the second one is my favourite, is it impressionist?
