Description

I used a mask to pull this out of the fliage and selective colorization to accentuate the original concept. I was happy witht the brush work until the end as I got near the bottom of the frame and the strkes became sloppy and obvious. Control Z went back one step only so I could not undo the bad result. It seemed as if the opacity increased as I reduced the size of the brush to do some painting between and near the blooms petals.
