Impact


This is a very interesting deviation. I'd like to say that this painting sets a very calm mood and that I wouldn't mind hanging this on a wall in my house.

The way the colours contrast with each other was done very well and I love the way the flowers seem to be reaching up into the sky.

The main focus, the bee and the closest flower, have been given extra detail as to draw attention to them. Rather smartly I might add. Though, It would have been better is the bee was slightly more prominent.

All in all though, an excellent work of art.

This is very well done. Everything blends well with each other. Good job. ^_^ Though I'm wondering if the lighting that you're depicting in the BG is the cause of the semi-transparency of the flowers? Not sure about that. They seem transparent to me anyways.

This is really beautiful! ouo
The only suggestion I can think of to make it better would be to maybe add some depth to the main flower, or touch it up a little, because it feels unfinished to me. You could try to find a reference if you weren't already using one.

i really like this picture you made! the way the light is, the colors are very warm and welcoming, i could definitely see the impact of how bees are really important for pollination, for with out them, we have no food! The pollen falling from the bee's legs is very magickal, as if at any moment fearies could appear.
the glow around the flower and the bee is really nice, and its makes such an impact that it is not perfect, for it shows that life is not perfect... but is still beautiful. The bee is very significant because it represents family, wisdom, and compassion. The bee is a symbol of balance and love, and i am assuming that those are red poppies, and poppies represent respect and love for friends and families. That is why they are used for memorial and veterans day, so i thank you for making sure that those people are remembered and taken care of by the bee, and letting the world see it and appreciate it!

very nice! Great colour and I love the sky and the distance effect on the background flowers.

The only thing that looks weird is the sparkles (pollen I'd guess?) in the foreground. The edges are too sharp so it's the one thing that looks really digital in the whole piece. Maybe you could use a slight blur effect to blend it into the picture more?
