I feel...

the rose stems PS layer texture detracts from the image....that's just because I use PS too much.

other than that....sweet!

I feel....sad?

The stems does look weird, but it also looks deliberate, like you meant for it to be like that, not that you didn't know any other way. Cool image.

it's pretty uninspiring. and clich�. but the realisation's pretty solid.

the actual petals look awesome, but I really think the flat stem takes away from the picture. And shouldn't the rose be blackening at the ends and wilting away? I don't mind the cliche aspect, but the stem really bothers me.

thks for the reply guys

i can see that the stem has big problems now.
i guess i was just too tired last night to even see that.
not only the stem, but the entire composition has problems. it's not 'rich' enough i would say.

it's not inspiring i know as some of you've pointed out, and i agree. but for this quick painting, i would just leave it like this. i didn't really have a concept behind it when i started it anyways.

so anyways, i'll fix the problem about the stem and some other image composition problems and then i'll post it up again for further critique.

thks again for the input
