Description

Same as the other one.... I lightened the flower only on this one, leaving the leaves/background darker to make the flower stand out a bit more...

How very elegant, Rob -- the darkness is just so right for making it sound right. I think of fabrics like satin and velvet when I look at this. The detail is excellent, too. This is really very smart. Congratulations for your 3rd place in the monthly MM competition, too. #1351216

Wonderful, Bob. The color in the flower really does pop with the dark green surrounding it. Congratulations on your win! #9219814

That should have been "the darkness is just so right for making it stand out"
Don't know where the "sound right" came from - someone else must have slipped in while I was commenting. #9220299

This is beautiful, Bob! Love the colors... and, I love the light bg behind the tulip on either side, it helps to draw the eye into the flower. Congrats on your 3rd place in the MM competition, too! #9220782
