The Passion flower is my favorite. Great use of dark col ores. The red gradients sand out perfectly against the dark blue background. And when you have seen that part of the picture you start to look for the details and pattern in the background. In that way it becomes a very "deep" picture to look at.

Arizon makes me think of, well, Arizona and that part of the world. I like the panels.
Don't You Slip has neat contrast between the bright lettering and the muted background.
Passionflower - I love the colours, and the contrast with the yellow in the centre.

I am amazed at all the images you did as it seems, in a very short time. All equally beautiful. The flower's jewel, for some reason, makes it seem as if it has some kind of powers. Maybe it's the colors?

Thank Leif. It took me ages to get the right "look". Hubby commented that he had no idea I was that angry, so I put the yellow gem in to brighten it. I didn't think I was angry at all. I guess he knows me well.
Blackpenny your comment on the gem makes me glad I did it. Thank to you & Ella for the great comments & feedback on Don't You Slip. It was a bit of a tough one. I liked the elements but thought it needed something. Still was a bit iffy on the text but your comments prove that it was the right decision after all.
Stress is the body overriding the brain's insistent desire to choke the living daylights out of someone who desperately needs it. I was working on the Passionflower image & the latest one while trying to soothe my poor body & brain. PDN crowds out most other thought...good therapy!
Arizona - thanks everyone for your great feedback on this one. The original image didn't have nay clouds & hubby said it could use some very light wispy ones. Then I thought it would be good to carry elements of the image to the wall too.
Ipswichmanc - there are a few more like that in the pipline...thankies!
Helen, some of them I had to let sit for a bit...you know that it isn't done but you have no idea what else it needs or if you need to leave something out.
The panels was rather quick. I used images made before.
Sargon, thank you for your wonderful support. Glad you like the Passionflower one.
New image on page 1.

Gosh BBQ - my jaw dropped when I perused all your recent work. You were always very good, but I can now see that you are getting more and more talented. How you do it, is beyond me. I have to say that Sidereal/Art deco/Valentine & Hear no evil are absolutely stunning. Fantasic work

Thank you Pixey but I wasn't always good. Seriously, my early work was very ordinary. We all get better because we have encouragement & advice from each other here.
Even when the comments are not directed at me, I think about the advice & see if I can apply that to my own work.

Hi Barbieq, well there are to many works to comment them all but my fav is Hear no Evil it all works really well and has a menacing feel to it but still keeps a feminine touch..... a great mixture , i also really like Deirdre of the Sorrows, it keeps its old world feel that matches the celtic insperation ;D
