Lovely painting Seok and the line from the poem describes it beautifully!

I have been looking at your painting for a long time Seok and admiring the beautiful delicate brush strokes. After having tried to get something out of my oils and failed completely , I can only wonder how you do it. Everything works together, the colours are gorgeous, the shadows deep and the overall image just stunning.

Oil too. Beautifully done! I agree with Satu.

Love this Seok. Wonderful colours - violas are a particular favourite, reminding me of my grandmother.

One of my favourite flowers - they are so cheerful. Your painting brings them to life and reminds us that Spring is hopefully on its way (well, in the next three months or so!)

Pansies on the patio of the Scott Christensen Studio in Victor, Idaho. Title of the painting is from a line in the poem "The Angel of the Flowers" by Thomas John Ouseley: "The beauteous pansies rise In purple, gold, and blue, With tints of rainbow hue Mocking the sunset skies" .
