This is so beautiful, you are an inspiration, I just love everything about it!

I can only agree with Stephen ,its terrific.

Thank you very much, Stephen and William!

Your oil painting is as good as your watercolour painting. This is stunning. Beautiful.

Another beautiful painting, lovely vibrant colour, and I do love your title!

Is there anything you can't paint ?!!!! This is just so beautiful - the blues and pink are glorious. I love it.

Wow, this is sooooo beautiful. What a talented and versatile artist you are.

Thank you very much, everyone! It's a piece I struggled with for months, losing my enthusiasm for it many times along the way, so I'm very glad that the final product struck a chord with so many artists whose works I really admire.

Absoutely perfect flowers, so well executed. Yes you are very versatile. No sign of a struggle here!

Thank you very much, Carole. It's my favorite characteristic of oil paint - that one can cover up the first few dozen terrible colors and brushstrokes a gazillion times and no one will know better!

It is simply beautiful! Wonderful painting... and most of all there is not a trace of your struggle :-) Well done, great job.

Sorry, I just realised that my post is almost identical to previous by Carole :-)

lovely piece of work seok , you have given such charm to these beautiful flowers.

Thank you very much Victoria and Shelley!

It doesnt look like you struggled ! I would have it on my wall anytime!!!!:) LInda

Thank you Linda!

First of all thank you so much for your lovely comments on my "white" wedding paintings. I am shamed that it's been such a long time since i went through galleries and I'm absolutely stunned by these. I could never do anything like this in oils; I'm just learning. Out of all of them this one really is amazing.

Thank you for your very kind comment, Diana! I am looking forward to seeing your oils and I am sure you will be up and running soon, given your talent and eye for detail. This painting required more stamina than skill. The basics were easy to master, but it was the months of waiting for things to dry and going through each petal that made me almost give up!

Wow! this is pretty stunning! I love this composition, the feeling, the lot! brilliant.

Thank you very much, Beatrice!

You have a wonderful selection of paintings - this one is really super. It is so difficult to portray the delicacy of flowers in oils but you have certainly developed a wonderful technique.

Thank you very much, Cheryl!

I have to agree with the above Seok a gorgeous painting. I have had a wonder through you beautiful galleries of work. You should be very proud. Excellent. PS I would just like to thank you for your comment on my latest work.

Thank you very much for your very kind comment, Jeannette!
