Description More practice. I found some great ways to achieve crappy shading and poor contrast.

It's good work. I know I've done some experimentation with new materials and trying to shade. Practice makes perfect so keep at it! 

I do like the linework.

Thank you for your kind words and the fav! I thought the composition and linework were the only good points, so that means a lot.

when I see this art in full view, the strange phenomenon happen to me, and I try to express it with the words. when I see the thumbnail, I don't think much of it. my interest is mainly on the anthro characters and I guess I won't comment on this art, seeing the color of the flowers and background and I feel you try and learn how the colors go on. and I see the full view, and see the color on whole part, and in the same time I think of the camera man and the landscape artists. they pick up the good scene and objects and they find the most beautiful side of the objects, I'm thinking of it and then the vision is changed, the front cosmos show the face to our side in good angle, and not whole yellow flower isn't shown, the tip side isn't shown but I feel it's good shot in this art. and I notice how you find the good scene and express it.

so far I don't see much of the flower arts, so this feeling is really strange to me. and I start to see the other flower arts on the still life category, and I feel my vision to see the flowers is a little enhanced. the floral arts show 1 or 2 flowers is easier to see than before, but the tiny flowers gathering in one part isn't changed to me. I think the floral artists and flower art lovers can see and feel and sense somethings what I haven't noticed.

Thank you for taking the time to comment on this artwork! It's awesome to me that you mentioned photography, because I painted this from a photo I took: Cosmos little . I changed the composition to be more appealing on my small painting paper because I wanted to focus on fewer flowers and paint them bigger. 

I love floral art. It's something I used to do more before I joined DA and I hope to draw and paint many more flowers! Thank you!

I see the photography and I think you have good sense to show the good side of the flowers with changing the composition. the fewer flowers make the more simple art, then the composition become important.

Lol!  Sometimes the most helpful experiments don't quite work out in the end.
