I think your friend will be delighted Glennis. The gold border on the triple mount is very effective and I'm sure a gold frame will add the finishing touch. The flowers are beautifully painted as always.

really caught my eye this Glennis, it is beautiful

So fresh - of course it is strong enough - nice one Glennis

Love these flowers and this painting of them, it works beautifully and the effect is subtle and delicate.

I agree with all the above comments, Glennis: this is really super! Triple mount: WOW... :)

elegant and sophisticated the gold picks out the stamens, I am amazed at how well the white stands out against the white. There will be one happy lady in germany

Glennis, it's beautiful. I don't think you need to worry.

Lucky friend is all I can add! Another delightful painting Glennis.

Thank you all so much for your very helpful comments. I will pack it up and send it off.

Just back from a few days away and catching up.This is lovely Glennis

I don't think I can add much to all the other comments, but I do think If the flowers stood out more from the background it would spoil the subtle elegance and beauty that you have evoked. It's lovely just as it is and the triple mount if inspired.

Beautiful white flowers Glennis, don't think you should worry, you have shaded the petals very well and the painting is clean and beautifully mounted.

Super work Glennis, I'm sure your friend will be delighted.

So fresh. Very nice indeed,.

I always admire your paintings of white flowers - so hard to pull off but you do it time and time again. This is a super painting and like others, I really like the way it has been framed which sets it off beautifully.

Larry, Christine, Carole,Debs, Sarah and Thea- Many thanks for the very encouraging commentd.

This is absolutely stunning, Glennis! I think your friend will be more than delighted. It's subtle but so very elegant and fresh. I think you got it just right.

Seok - many thanks for your kind comment

I have painted this for a friend in Germany, not sure whether the flowers stand out enough against the white background, your comments would be appreciated. She asked for white flowers as this would go with her decor, she also uses gold frames so I have had it triple mounted with a gold border, but I am still not sure the image is strong enough to stand out when framed.
