HYCCT1518 Dutch Flowers

Poster: Dockside

Emily's (SkyNacho) HYCCT challenge was to be inspired by a 'Masterpiece'. I have always been amazed by the Dutch masters's still life fruit and flowers paintings like this one https://www.pinterest.com/pin/46795283601020242/ My version is a watercolored PSX stamp image.

Your version looks like the real thing to me, Ms. Dockside. I stay away from images like this. With your talent, however, you've brought your dutch still life painting to life, my friend.

Oh this is AMAZING!!! I am totally blown away with your artistry! Love your coloring, and the distressed edges help give it that vintage flavor. As usual, your works touch and amaze me with your artistry.

Best wishes,

Very nice watercoloring. The shading under the basket is a neat touch-- it looks so natural, too.

Thanks for playing along with my HYCCT challenge!
